Our Take

Demon Fuzz's "Afreaka!" is a delightful cacophony of psychedelic funk that will transport you straight to a cosmic dance party in outer space. The band effortlessly blends elements of Afrobeat, jazz, and rock into a mesmerising sonic journey that is guaranteed to keep you grooving from start to finish.

From the moment the album kicks off with the infectious "Past, Present and Future", you'll find yourself swept away by the band's infectious energy and infectious melodies. The swirling horns, funky basslines, and soulful vocals combine to create a sound that is both familiar and otherworldly.

Tracks like "One Way Trip" and "I Put a Spell on You" showcase the band's versatility and willingness to experiment with different genres and sounds. The result is a dynamic and engaging album that never fails to surprise and delight.

While "Afreaka!" may not have achieved mainstream success upon its initial release in 1970, it has since become a cult classic among fans of obscure funk and psychedelic music. Demon Fuzz may have been ahead of their time, but their music still sounds fresh and exciting today.

In conclusion, "Afreaka!" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to expand their horizons and discover something truly unique. So put on your bell-bottoms, grab a lava lamp, and get ready to be transported to a funky, groovy, and altogether mind-blowing musical experience. Cheers to Demon Fuzz for creating a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences decades later.

About the artist

Demon Fuzz

Demon Fuzz were a fascinating and enigmatic presence in the British music scene of the early 1970s. Formed in London in the late 60s, this multicultural collective blended elements of funk, jazz, Afrobeat, and psychedelic rock to create a sound that was truly groundbreaking. Their debut album, "Afreaka!", released in 1970, remains a cult classic among music aficionados. The record is a tour de force of genre-bending experimentation, with tracks like "Past, Present and Future" and "Mercy (Variation No. 1)" showcasing the band's virtuosic musicianship and innovative approach to songwriting. Demon Fuzz were known for their electrifying live performances, with a lineup that often included up to ten members on stage at a time. Their eclectic mix of styles and influences made them a truly unique proposition in the early 70s music scene, and their influence can still be heard in the work of contemporary artists today. Sadly, Demon Fuzz disbanded in the mid-70s, leaving behind a small but powerful body of work that continues to capture the imagination of music fans around the world. While their time in the spotlight may have been short-lived, their impact on the music world is undeniable. Demon Fuzz may be gone, but their legacy lives on in the grooves of "Afreaka!" and the memories of those lucky enough to have experienced their magic live. In a landscape overcrowded with imitators and pretenders, Demon Fuzz were the real deal. Their music defied categorisation and transcended genre boundaries, marking them out as true pioneers of the golden age of British music. For those in the know, Demon Fuzz will always be remembered as a band that dared to be different - and succeeded in truly spectacular fashion.
