Please recommend some psychedelic rock to me

[stormbv]

Anyone's who's especially good? I have no idea about psychedelic rock...I always thought people who listened to psychedelic rock were flower-children, no good, sinful hippies!

I'd say if your just tripping' out on some weed take in a few sessions of dark side of the moon.

but it's Marjory based on the context of the situation.


also, try reading the first chapter of Ezekiel while listening to something like the Doors.

Yep...I'm using it medically for educational purposes. It's fire...so, "Excuse me, while I kiss the sky!"

There is no reason why it should be illegal. I'm not even using it recreationally anymore...my mind becomes so focused...I see that things aren't what they seem.

If you like that kind of stuff you might also like "Tool"
They aren't psychadelic rock but just take a listen, they are pretty good. I recommend the tracks "Parabol" and "Parabola" played one after the other, with no gap between them. "Prison Sex" is also quite good.

There is no logic that can defend giving someone ' points' on his license for driving while drunk, but sending someone away for JAIL for having the less intoxicating, less addictive, less dangerous all around substance marijuana.. though i do think all intoxicants do 'spiritual' harm, that's just a good reason to highly regulate it's recreational use, not send people to the same place as sexual offenders and attempted murderers.

edit:

tell me how

oh, and if you've got a strong faith in Jesus System of a Down's first album is great :-D

the great thing about psychedelic music is it's still going strong, they just keep the drugs on the down-low these days.

here's some great modern psychedelic rock bands:

smashing pumpkins (gish, siamese dream, pieces escariot)
tool (they get more so with each album. lateralus is the most psychedelic)
radiohead (mostly ok computer and everything after)
janes addicition (more so the earlier stuff)
sigur ros
glassjaw (cross between psychedelic and post-hardcore)
spongle (more trip-hop style stuff)
bjork (not really rock but still very psychedelic, especially the last couple albums)
incubus
hum
modest mouse
john vanderslice

the important thing to remember here is that psychedelic music isn't made up of a certain "sound" the way other genres are. rather, it is the application of a certain sensibility (the psychedelic sensibility, obviously) to the musical format of choice. so while pearl jam and smashing pumpkins are both "alternative" bands, pearl jam is not psychedelic while smashing pumpkins is. if you're "experienced" you learn to pick up on it really quickly, especially if you're also a musician. also, don't confuse psychedelic rock with stoner rock. modern stoner rock bands include deftones and queens of the stone age. the important thing here is that psychedelic rock doesn't have to be that aging-hippy jam-band cliche. personally i hate that crap and i think the pumpkin's siamese dream is actually a lot more psychedelic than say, phish.

these bands are not psychedelic:
linkin park and crew
staind and crew
anything punk
almost anything emo
weezer
red hot chili peppers (except for one hot minute because of dave navarro)
the vast majority of metal
new wave

not to say that metal or new wave couldn't become psychedelic if you wanted to, it's just that most people who would be in those bands wouldn't take them cause they're for hippies (which would be either wimpy, uncool, or both, depending on who you talk to).

edit: i'm not passing judgment on the non-psychedelic bands. i actually like a lot of emo, and weezer, and they've been big influences on me as a musician. but i think they'd be better if they...er..."opened their horizons."

 

[Spacehead]

Here are just a few;
Hawkwind - My favorite band & one of the pioneers of space/psychedelic rock
Ozric Tentacles - Another top notch band UK band
Quarkspace - Great spacerock band from Columbus Ohio. If mp3.com is still around(i hear from Quarkspace's drummer they've been bought out) there are several free songs from various albums available. Lots of improvised material from these guys.
Mr. Quimby's Beard - Some free mp3's available on their site.
The Spacious Mind - Great Swedish band!
Eloy - Some of their earlier work reminds me of Yes a little bit, but i here similarities to Pink Floyd also.

If you don't mind RealAudio, check out this site for tons of streaming/downloadable music. They sell CD's there too at great prices & lots of reviews.

Drugs have been used for centuries for religious purposes, just not in this country, where we have "religious freedom". Ha! People are bitching about the judge and the Ten Commandments deal, only to skip over the point that they've never had religious freedom.
