Details
Another of the back catalogue offerings from Flavor Crystals, a new fave at Forte Towers, The Flavor Crystals are a five piece psyche-pop outfit from Minneapolis, and "Ambergris" is their second album. Recorded and mixed in a mad six days under the stewardship of the legendary producer Kramer, "Ambergris" sees the band spread their wings sonically from their 2005 debut. Harkening back to the vibe of 70s psychedelia, and adding a late 80s shoegazing influence they've come up with a loose and primordial sound that recalls the likes of Galaxie 500's "On Fire" (a previous Kramer production), and old Piccadilly favourites Acetone. Reverb drenched guitars and a laid back pace combine with hushed vocals to create a dreamy, intense and beautiful atmosphere, that you can get lost in for days.
