GOLDEN VOID: 'The Curve.'

Their self-titled debut album has already been released here in the UK, but not yet having heard it I can only judge it on the one track (‘The Curve’) which follows below.

WOW! Now THAT’S some serious rock and roll! Psych just the way God intended it!

The first thing you gotta know, is that it’s released on the amazing Thrill Jockey label – they simply don’t do ‘OK!’

The second thing you may want to know is a little bit of background:

The members of GOLDEN VOID have been connected musically off and on since they were teenagers. After playing in various bands together and apart throughout high school and the intervening years, Isaiah Mitchell (guitar/vocals, also of Earthless), Aaron Morgan (bass), and Justin Pinkerton (drums) coalesced as GOLDEN VOID after Mitchell’s move to the Bay Area in 2009. The addition of Camilla Saufly-Mitchell on keyboards cemented the band.

That’s all I have at the moment, but hopefully I’ll be able to post a full album review shortly and will glean further information then.

But right now, sit back, crack open a beer, close your eyes and freak out!
