from the Acid Archives... Came with the typical dealer hype when reissued but is a disappointment along the lines of Farm above. Local mid-70s sort of barrock/basement AOR vibes with (God forbid) honkie funk moves. Pretty stiff and flat soundscape a la the first Agape as well - only redeeming factor is a passable consistency. Don't waste your money on this one. [PL]
I know that OR reissued it, and they've done some other stuff like George Brigman and Rayne that I love, but I've never heard anyone who wasn't trying to sell that record say anything nice about it.
I have the repress, and while the music sounds good, the vocals are aweful. Too bad its not an instrumental album or that they had a different singer, because it would be fire.
I've had originals of this a few time s and while I like it I know plenty who don't. It was a Phillipino band based in NYC and their songs are mostly short(3-4 minute variety) with a decent amount of lead guitar. Some find the songs similar and boring.

i typically don't trust most online reviews when it comes to obscurities like this. but if its got a few decent tracks i'd give it a shot.
Nothing "funky" about it to my ears.....more like a bland version of The Cykle
