Taking its cue from the secrets of esoteric literature as from acts such as The 13th Floor Elevators, Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band, Love and Crazy Horse, Weird Owl has managed to create a sonic mindscape that half resembles the last prayers of an ancient priest-king and half resembles the translations of a future language fallen down from silvery space. The album is a tour-de-force of its peculiar craft - hypnotic slithering guitar lines, the strange breathiness of cosmic synths, a dash of the punishing heaviness of the riff - all contained with phantasmagoric song structures and expressed within the language of a true visionary experience.
