Best known for electronic space music for keyboards, electronics and guitars, here Radio Massacre have expanded greatly upon their usual sound and also use conventional rock instrumentation to create a sincere and moving tribute to Syd Barrett, and in doing so, manage to capture some of the psychedelic magic of 1967-1968. This album features a really striking cover by Daevid Allen, which is also a homage to Syd. For fans of: Ash Ra Tempel/Manuel Göttsching, Djam Karet, Heldon, Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream and, of course, Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd. |
