Prepare to embark on a sonic journey through the cosmos with "It's Alive" by La Luz. This album is a captivating fusion of surf rock, dream pop, and psychedelic sounds that will transport you to another dimension.
Considered a pylon of the "Psychedelphia" scene that also included luminaries Lilys, Bardo Pond and Azusa Plane, reviews consistently cited Syd-era Pink Floyd, The 13th Floor Elevators, Hawkwind and early-Verve as the inspirations heard on the album.
Here, the 12-string folk-rock jangle of the mid-60's Byrds is overlaid with the washed-out vocal harmonies of Ride and topped off with psychedelic drones familiar to Spacemen 3.
11 years after the release of previous album Provision, Scritti Politti erupted back into life with 1999"s Anomie & Bonhomie. Recalibrated, re-evaluated, re-imagined and, eventually, rewarded.
