Description/Reviews:
The wild mixture of psychedelic rock, electronica and trippy soundscapes is still the leading direction for the band. But these tracks rock a lot. The title Kozmik Koon was inspired by our friend Kozmik Ken from England, who is the „father“ of the lovely Kozfest and a bear like person. We live in a area full of racoons, so we instantly found the name Kozmik Koon.Media/Samples

Cybernetic Witch Cult’s third album ‘Absurdum ad Nauseam’ sees the trio focusing and honing in on key sonic elements to elevate their own unique perception and create a heavier experience for listeners, without losing the progressive and 70s influences the band are well known for. Psychedelic, Doomed, Stoner, Groovaceous Sci-fi & Horror themed Metal. A gelatinous slice of doom, sprinkled with Black Sabbath, Hawkwind and Monster Magnet.Read the full review by Carl Fisher at gbhbl.com
