Dave's Doors Of Perception - Apophenia

'Apophenia (noun) ap·o·phe·nia \ˌa-pə-ˈfē-nē-ə\is the spontaneous perception of connections and meaningfulness of unrelated phenomena… and the debut album by Dave’s Doors Of Perception…the greatest psychedelic, garage–mod, album ever recorded'.

'The greatest psychedelic garage-mod album ever...' is quite some claim - unless you happen to be the greatest garage-rock band ever and Dave's Door's Of Perception are just that ... and more some. 

Some background on the band and a review of the uber-catchy ear-worm single Shake Your Bones (with video here), a delicious taster from the debut album....
'the greatest psychedelic, garage–mod, album ever recorded'. Apophenia; it's out now and you will not be disappointed.

The twelve tracks on the, as yet CD only, album are an ear-drum shattering, sixties garage punk pop masterclass ... infectious song writing, creative production, growling Vox bass, screaming single-manual organ and the nastiest guitars set to tape - the solid foundations that under-pin the venom spitting lead vocal ...forged from the nine levels of Dante's hell. 

Each track harks back to the best of the Nuggets and Pebbles series, but acknowledging influential bands that have shaped the psychedelic scene ever since; too many to list here, and this blogger doesn't want to spoil the journey for listeners, but the first track on the album, Tear Down The Sky, sets the tone, the hilarious New Rock n' Roll gives the gravitas ... and the quality never stops - both videos below.

Out now from Well Suspect Records

Best album ever? Yep!
 





Skill!
