REVERSED NATURE are a psychedelic jam rock band from Greece. Cosmic Eye
presents their debut LP, characterized by a constant lazy flow of sounds,
rhythms and voices. Never knowing where it will end, the band travel through
long excursions falling somewhere between the drifty murk of space rock, krauty
influenced jamming and the psychedelic aspect of some tribal post punk.
Opener "Into the Limbo" sets the mood perfectly, with it's
tranced out, almost spacey sounding mesmer; that druggy, drowsy vibe surfacing
throughout the rest of the track, sometimes morphing into a grim kosmische
sound, other times blossoming into near Savage Republic's tribal post punk, but
always shadowy and grey, and darkly dreamlike. Female vocals scream and wail in
a P.I.L. ethno mood, then tenderly echo and whisper hauntingly meditative
gloom-ragas, over a bed of roiling dark drones, and softly churning guitar
reverb. Woozy melodies, bleed and blur into softly undulating sonic tapestries,
sometimes tethered to a spare, skeletal rhythm, but often left to float
weightless in a sprawl of drowsy shimmer. As the band builds forth, the sound
eventually builds to a heavier psych-kraut drift, and then swifts into some
rhythmic jam rock, all deep bass drones, pounding drumming, thick murky
riffage, eventually launching into EARTH's doomy introspective acid freak-out
groove.
Musically, what REVERSED NATURE really display on this album is a
contemporary woozy and warped psychedelic jam rock. It's a beautiful work that
continually rewards -the more we listen. The perfect soundtrack to a moonlit
desert beneath a field of stars.
