Our Take

MOTHER GONG's live album in the US is a rollercoaster of auditory delights that will have you dancing one minute and contemplating the meaning of life the next. The eccentric blend of ethereal vocals, psychedelic instruments, and quirky lyrics creates a sound that is both otherworldly and down-to-earth.

Lead singer Daevid Allen's vocals soar to dizzying heights, while the band's intricate arrangements keep you on your toes throughout the entire performance. From the opening track "Gong Crazy" to the epic closer "Mother of the Universe," MOTHER GONG takes you on a musical journey that you won't soon forget.

The band's energy is infectious, and it's clear that they are having just as much fun on stage as the audience is in the crowd. The chemistry between the band members is palpable, and it adds an extra layer of depth to their already rich sound.

MOTHER GONG's live album is a must-listen for fans of experimental music, as well as anyone looking for a truly unique musical experience. So grab your headphones, crank up the volume, and let MOTHER GONG take you on a wild ride through the cosmos. Trust us, you won't regret it.
