Our Take

Indie rock trio Sons of Hippies burst onto the scene with their latest album "Griffins At The Gates Of Heaven." With a name like that, you'd expect mystical vibes and epic sounds to match, and this album does not disappoint.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, you're transported to a world where psychedelic guitars mingle with dreamy vocals, creating a sonic tapestry that is both familiar and otherworldly. The band's influences are clear - hints of early Tame Impala and Jefferson Airplane can be heard throughout - but Sons of Hippies manage to carve out a sound all of their own.

Tracks like "Space Man" and "Warriors of the Sun" showcase the band's knack for crafting catchy hooks and infectious melodies, while slower, more introspective songs like "The Prophecy" and "Siren" offer a glimpse into the band's softer side.

Lead vocalist Katherine Kelly's haunting voice is the perfect foil to the band's more experimental instrumentals, and her range is truly impressive. The production on the album is crisp and clean, allowing each instrument to shine through without overwhelming the overall sound.

Overall, Sons of Hippies have crafted an album that is sure to please both fans of classic rock and those seeking something a bit more contemporary. "Griffins At The Gates Of Heaven" is a solid effort from a band that is definitely worth keeping an eye on. Trust me, you don't want to miss out on this gem.
