Review by Dj Astro @ PsychotropicZone

Nasoni has made another heroic act by re-releasing this Texas psychedelia classic that was originally released on the highly collectible Rockadelic Records in 1996. Liquid Sound Company is a group led by John Perez, the leading figure and guitarist in the doom band Solitude Aeturnus. He formed this band to be able to play more mind-expanding music. On one of the tracks on the album the singer of Solitude Aeturnus takes cares of the vocals, and John does a good job on others. At the time, John sent me a CD copy of this great album released on his own Brainticket label, and I wrote a review for the Colossus mag. My only, little complaint back then was the lack of keyboards or synthesizer, for example a Moog or some other analogue gear would have been nice. John then told me, that he just couldn’t get anybody to play synth, but on the second, even better LSC album even that little deficiency was taken care of.Exploring the Psychedelic has aged very well, and still sounds very good. There are some oriental influences, hypnotic and pretty minimal, peaceful stuff and also some heavy fuzz guitar action on the album. Naturally, there are also some psychedelic effects, sitar, backwards stuff and other similar things. A couple of the tracks are apparently the missing link between doom metal and psych… There are no weak numbers on this album. Musically the album remains just the same, so there are no different tracks or re-mixing, but the cover is no a gatefold with a lot of pictures and a long list of bands from the 60’s until this day who have been influential is there, too. This is a must have, if you don’t happen to have the original in your collection!
