Flight Reaction - Flight Reaction

At last, the long-awaited debut album from the Flight Reaction has arrived! This Swedish group, featuring ex-members of the Crimson Shadows and the Giljoteens, expands on their signature sound of 60's-style garage psychedelia that they have displayed over the course of 4 singles already. Through 12 new songs, the band sonically paints with a much wider palette, with nice freakbeat and acid-punk moves to boot, as well as some additional instrumentation to spice up the affair, such as sitar, mellotron, farfisa, and flute. As a whole, the album has a similar feel to the Pretty Things classic S.F. Sorrow as well as the Outsiders legendary C.Q. album, yet song by song retains all the immediacy, fuzz, mood, and grit that predominated the sounds of many garage and psychedelic unknowns during the height of the psychedelic 60's, while remaining very much in touch with the ever-present now. Are you ready for take-off? Then here's your ticket, hop on board!
