skyjelly is an eclectic boston based band that creates many different modes of experimental rock. their album '
skyjelly and sun' is a recommended mind melter. their semi-electronic grunge/psych sounds can go from harsh to delicate, incorporating drum machines and found sound samples along with organic jamming and whirling eastern melodies.
coming in at four tracks, i wish '
skyjelly and sun' was longer. the last track, '
peshawar (astral)' has a particularly special stomp to it. skyjelly reminds me of the relentlessly experimental psych acts of the 80's, such as
butthole surfers and
sun city girls.
