Our Take

The Incredible String Band's latest offering, "Be Glad Forin," is a delightful journey through a whimsical world of folk, psychedelia, and everything in between. From the opening track to the closing notes, the listener is transported to a place where time stands still and the worries of the world simply melt away.

The band's unique blend of traditional Celtic influences, Eastern mysticism, and good old-fashioned rock 'n' roll creates a sound that is truly one-of-a-kind. Each song on the album is a sonic tapestry, weaving together intricate melodies and poetic lyrics in a way that only the Incredible String Band can.

One standout track is "The Hedgehog's Song," a jaunty romp through a fantastical world populated by talking animals and mythical creatures. With its infectious chorus and toe-tapping beat, this song is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a spring in your step.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Be Glad Forin." The band also delves into darker, more introspective territory with tracks like "The Iron Stone" and "Maya." These songs showcase the band's versatility and depth, proving that there is more to the Incredible String Band than meets the eye.

In conclusion, "Be Glad Forin" is a triumph of creativity and imagination, a testament to the enduring power of music to transport us to far-off lands and inspire us to see the world in a new light. So grab your headphones, press play, and let the magic of the Incredible String Band wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
