Our Take

GONG's latest offering, "The Universe Also Collapses," is a cosmic journey through a kaleidoscope of sound. Like a sonic supernova, this album explodes with psychedelic textures and experimental arrangements that transport the listener to another dimension.

From the opening track, "My Mind Is Fading," to the ethereal closer, "The End Is Only the Beginning," GONG weaves a tapestry of sonic bliss that is both mesmerizing and mind-bending. The band's signature blend of jazz-infused prog rock and spacey electronica creates a mesmerizing soundscape that is both retro and futuristic.

Lead singer Daevid Allen's quirky vocals and whimsical lyrics add an element of playfulness to the album, while the band's tight instrumentation and intricate melodies showcase their musical prowess. Tracks like "Dimension Door" and "Visions" stand out as highlights, with their intricate rhythms and hypnotic grooves keeping the listener hooked from start to finish.

Overall, "The Universe Also Collapses" is a sonic odyssey that is a must-listen for fans of experimental music. GONG continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the realm of psychedelic rock, and this album is a testament to their enduring creativity and innovation. So grab your space helmet and buckle up, because this album will take you on a wild ride through the cosmos.
