FOLLAKZÖID

Back in 2013, Föllakzoid emerged with ‘II’, an album of intensely heavy noise. Follow up ‘III’, their second album for New York label Sacred Bones, is even tougher. The trio, based in Santiago, Chile, are experimenting with harsher textures this time round, drawing from rigid techno as well as hazy psychedelia. The band worked on the songs with Frankfurt electronica veteran Atom ™, and together they’ve created a brutal record. The concrete beats on 11-minute lead single ‘Electric’ land like hand grenades, and the guitars on ‘Earth’ shift from cosmic to cacophonous in an instant. ‘Piure’ and ‘Feuerzeug’ provide patches of light, but ‘III’ is all about intensity.

Sisters of Your Sunshine Vapor are a garage-psych band from Detroit, MI. Originally formed in 2004 under the moniker “SikSik Nation”, Sean Morrow (guitar, vocals), Eric Oppitz (bass, organ), and Richard Sawoscinski (drums, percussion) have morphed from a hard-charging garage-blues band into a atmospheric, electrifying psychedelic rock band. SOYSV have shared the stage with The Black Angels, Acid Mothers Temple, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Spindrift, Dead Meadow and The Duke Spirit; performed at Austin Psychfest III; and produce Echo Fest, an annual music festival featuring the best of Michigan’s psych scene. The band has also opened their own recording studio, Space Camp Studios, where they record their own albums as well as those of other local bands.
