So exciting when a label kicks off with a bang like this, 'specially when it's an intimate affair, with no more than 200 copies being sold and Honey Owens (Nudge, Jackie-O Motherfucker) taking things solo. Stripped down solely to her voice and some ambient drones/percussion, it's really forcing one to fully take in the sound. Sometimes you feel it in your skull, sometimes it hits at the neck or the belly. Definitely a body experience - Chakra, ahoy! Maybe it's my frame of mind at the moment, but I'm now at a stage of loving this, playing it again and again, falling for its aural treats. So an album not of geekish interest only, but also highly rewarding. Headphones required; bong can take a rest.

Deep psychedelic tribal blues.
