Brainticket
Cottonwoodhill
Format: LP + CD
Record Label: Lilith
Condition: New (sealed)
* High quality reissue - 180 gram vinyl - gatefold sleeve - remastered from the original master tapes - includes a CD of the same material.
* "Being as LSD was first developed in a laboratory in Basel, it is
perhaps no coincidence that one of the most 'far out' albums of all time
was made by this Swiss band (no small feat, given the competition!).
Brainticket's 1971 debut, Cottonwoodhill, begins normally enough
with two fine psychedelic/Krautrock-influenced tracks, but the remainder
of the album plays like an acid trip with a soundtrack, dominated by
Joel Vandroogenbroeck's endless droning organ, a variety of musique
concrète-type sound effects and vocalist Dawn Muir's trippy vocals. The
album, banned in several countries, even came with this self-imposed
warning: 'After Listening to this Record, your friends may not know you
anymore.' / 'Only listen to this once a day, your brain might be
destroyed!'."
