The offbeat freakbeat and phantasmagorical psych-blues of 'Hic Abundant Leones', The Tower's cryptic, swinging timewarp of a debut LP, exude an ageless charm and resounding singularity, striking eerie, dreamlike atmospheres as ancient as the Sumerian blues records played by the Dionysos cults of the Postapocalyptic Era, the wrayed Indians, electric shamans, crazy horses, black skinheads, exhumed singers, diddlying sheriffs, mean lick hookers, third eye girls, many a stooge, all-man brothers, Birmingham attendants of the Sabbath, and many, many more.
