As rock bands go, The Psychic Paramount is a rigorously all-in proposition. They make impact a state of being rather than a discrete event. As single-minded as the music may seem at first strike, it exists at higher elevations - of decibel, intensity, motion, color, temperature - and spills freely over the walls of genre, magma into new land. It is punk in it's fury, noise in it's rash extremity, and progressive in form. II is their 2nd studio album.
the most spastic not-jazz-but-rock band ever. Don't worry, it's never wanky, and it's always classy. On a side note, some of the guitar feedback on the record has managed to annoy some people at work, so I gave it a fifth star.
Well, if you like deerhoof & sonic youth you will like this album... I just wished they had put more effort into the intro of this album... The cd just comes blasting in and does not let-up until its over.. they should of worked up a nice building intro....
