Weird Owl
" It starts with an unseen thought, an attitude, an idea of creation, and then through the forces at hand, translates itself--vibrations are given electrical equivalents and flow like waves toward all that surrounds."- from their myspace page

upon them a few stood out, including WEIRD OWL...whose psyche demensional force carries you to through the magical teepee of the desert, into the woodland of tommorrow, into the skies of forever. to some its spiritual, to me....its a wake up to start anew...each day..with vibrant beauty and discovery...slowly yet surely....out the door to something more...still i stay...but with sounds as such...its gives comfort to such restless and bordom when it blooms inside.



mountain party

its a ghost that touches the landscapes of the mind... ...its a beautiful haunting entanglement of old time desert wind echo sublime and experimental glow upon the midnight lakeside stroll.
Golden Animals

i like the song beautiful stranger...kinda reminds me of a dylany storytell (just a lil prolly cuz i just saw the movie im not there which would have been way better if they kept to just the dylan story not all the others...) with wisky and country twang blues.
