These days it’s rare to encounter an album which seems to leap out of the speakers brandishing a genuinely new sound. But that’s what happens on this long-playing debut from Sudakistan; four South American garage-psych freaks who’ve settled in Stockholm and joined forces with a sky-sailing Swedish lead guitarist.
Sudakistan’s pulsating brand of mind-frying mayhem commences with the congas and manic yelps which herald the opening title track, followed by nine jaw-dropping strikes, including early Hawkwind mysterioso rampages, marauding cosmic mind-fucks, big-riffed scorchers and expansively cerebral dream sequences.
Skymning manages to mate Jimi Hendrix’s Third Stone From The Sun ambience, Suicide vocals and amped-up Latin disco, closing an album which sadly arrived too late to make 2015’s best list.
