need a conscience expanding dose of heavy psych? well TJUTJUNA has you covered!!!!!!!!! their new album WESTERNER out on FIRE TALK RECORDS is one kaleidoscopic headlong jump into the depths of yer mind, one that forever will have you going back for more.......
TJUTJUNA (supposedly pronounced "choo choo na" and alluding to the russian version of the
sasquatch) is a mysterious psychedelic outfit hailing from denver, colorado....... not much info is to be found on the band, though that doesn't matter when you drop the needle on WESTERNER....... you needn't have context for an album when it's so engrossing on its own.......the bubbling synths and the repetitive guitar riffs matched with a motorik beat and a mesmerizing bassline blast you off into another dimension....... TJUTJUNA effortlessly combines the way out there psych of AMON DUUL and SOFT MACHINE with the atmospheric experimentation of CLUSTER and ASH RA TEMPLE to make a hazy lysergic sonic trip that'll make yer average run-of-the-mill psych lps seem boring......(and it seems "psych" is the new "it" genre of the moment....but tjutuna certainly stands out from the crowd...)
fans of HERBCRAFT, CAVE, VERMA, CAMERA, MOONRISES, WATHOUT!, FOLLAKZOID and CATACOMBZ will more than dig TJUTJUNA.........
WAY OUT AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!
LISTEN BELOW TO WESTERNER -
