It took three years for this San Diego retro psych/prog band to record that followup, but here it is, with The Black Chord, and believe me, if you were having trouble sitting through The Weirding because it was so long, but you loved their retro approach, you'll have it easier here, since it's just half as long, so making it easier to sit through. Fantastic retro psychedelic and prog that are basically tributes to many of the '70s greats, like Pink Floyd, Crimson, Sabbath, and so on. Plus I really love the vintage keyboards used here: Hammond organ, Moog, and Mellotron, and plenty of it too. This proves modern-day prog isn't all Spock's Beard or The Flower Kings. Great stuff!
