Elephants on Acid

Cypress Hill

A sprawling, hallucinatory odyssey through Egyptian street sounds and heavy sitar loops. Dark, murky, and deeply psychedelic West Coast rap.

Find on Amazon

It's like a 1970s psychedelic rock record found a drum machine in a Cairo alleyway.

A hallucinatory and paranoid journey through ancient landscapes and urban shadows.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition from the Egyptian street field recordings into the heavy sitar riff of Band of Gypsies.
The way the drums on Put em in the Ground sound like they were recorded in a concrete bunker with zero room for air.
The unsettling, slowed-down vocal manipulation on the interlude Elephant Acid that mimics a bad trip.
