Sonic Flower Groove

Primal Scream

Shimmering twelve-string guitars and breathy harmonies define this 1987 debut. A pristine, sun-drenched homage to sixties jangle pop and psychedelic folk.

It's like The Byrds moved to Scotland in 1987 and decided to make the sunniest record possible.

A sun-drenched, nostalgic reverie that feels like a soft-focus memory of the 1960s.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The shimmering twelve-string guitar intro of Gentle Tuesday that immediately evokes 1966 Los Angeles.
The lush, layered vocal harmonies on Silent Spring that create a thick fog of psychedelic nostalgia.
The way the tempo slightly drags on We Go Down Slowly Rising, mimicking the feeling of a heavy-lidded afternoon.
