Description/Reviews: 

This record has a lot of influence from early Pink Floyd mixed with early Gong and Steve Hillage. The opening of the 2nd song called Creation is very much a total tribute to Steve Hillage. He really nailed the guitar sound and vibe.  Time and Space is very much like MORE era Pink Floyd. Lovely simple acoustic guitar, haunting and beautiful.

Description/Reviews: 

This power-jam-trio calls Australia their home but a listen to the music has me thinking that these dudes have some connection to aliens and what not. Whatever it is, these Aussies know something about the outer reaches of the solar system that we don’t, and they’re here to educate us.
As the story goes, this album is entirely improvised. There was no pre-determined mission, no colossal ideas about when the crescendo would hit, nor was there any thought put into the length of the songs. The only thought that was put into this music was in the moment, and you know what, that moment was pretty sweet.

Leonardo Soundweaver

Description/Reviews: 

One listens to 'Silver Moon' as a concept album with beautiful well constructed psychedelic songs blending into each other. Brilliantly expansive psychedelic rock that mixes guitars, keyboards and synthesizers for a very full, surrounding sound. Strong melody lines with a prog-pop flair will hook your interest and trippy, near-metal lead riffs will blow your mind; while otherworldly vocal harmonies float on the electronic paisley-puff clouds in the catacombs of your brain. A calm center of authentic '60s/'70s influence steers the hallucinogenic atmosphere with a steady, strong blast of epic rock'n'roll drug music. This music recalls bands like (early) Pink Floyd, Hawkwind and electronic psychedelic '70s krautrock in general.
