Cracked Machine
Wormwood
'Wormwood,' the 4th album from heavy-psych outfit Cracked Machine takes its inspiration from the plant and star of the same name. The eight instrumental tracks draw on the myths of many cultures which associate Wormwood with madness and the end of the world. The album tells a story which weaves between themes of darkness and light, destruction and salvation, despair and hope. Stoner infused heavy-psychedelic grooves create a palette of texture which allow the themes to grow organically and invade the senses. "UK trio Cracked Machine jam instrumental grooves..., a swirling soaring blend of heavy psych, lysergic post rock and space that inhabits the sort of territories bands like Colour Haze, Causa Sui, Yawning Man and My Brother the Wind have made their home ... a collection of eight breath-taking soundscapes that will take you to places you didn't know you wanted to go to until you arrived there." ~Desert Psychlist. Limited to 200 copies on deep purple vinyl.
