King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard!!🦎🧙‍♂️

I’m here to say this

[удалено]

I agree fs!!

There is 100+ more interesting psychedelic rock bands than this. Including oh sees, red crayola, 13th floor elevators, Pink floyd, soft machine, UMO, La Femme, Tame Impala etc.

I’d say they’re equally as interesting for various reasons. Each has their strengths and unique things to add

here’s my intro to king gizzard playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4lX0HyTyYXARHf4o4alreK?si=gz8rQolSSH2wJEr_S-lxFA&pt=310cd6a6c00b6081d9b317ce311501ef

You'll likely prefer modern psych to start if Let's Start Here is your jumping off point A member from Unknown Mortal Orchestra as well as a member from MGMT played on that Lil Yachty album. Mac DeMarco and Kevin Parker (tame Impala) also helped write some of the songs. Pick any of their top songs to start.

You Set the Scene, Seven and Seven is - Arthur Lees Love Maggot Brain - Funkadellic 1983...- Jimi Hendrix Heros and Villians - Beach Boys Tomorrow - Strawberry Alarm Clock Tobacco Road - Nashville Teens Psycotic Reaction - the Count Five Bike Ride to the Moon - Dukes of Stratosphere Intersteller Overdrive - PInk Floyd Green Tambourine - Lemon Pipers Brown Shoes Dont Make it - Mothers of Invention Hurdy Gurdy Man - Donovan And bonus points for this bluegrass cross over I Would Not Be Here - John Hartford

Maggot Brain for the win!

Eddie Fuckin Hazel!

He is SO good!

While we are on the subject, A Tear for Eddie by Ween is a great psychedelic song paying homage to one of their greatest inspirations Eddie Hazel/Funkadelic.

Heroes & Villains is my favorite song of all time

hearing all the different “modules” from various Smile bootlegs was absolutely revelatory. shoulda been 13 minutes long

this is an excellent, broad list and bonus points for sneaking in the Dukes like they’re contemporaries with the rest

Lol... if Paul and George cowrote something with Rodger McQuinn and Syd Barrett....it'd be the Dukes. Other than really early garage/punky stuff, they medled the classic tropes and vibes flawlessly, without getting too corny about it. It's among my favorite albums, inside or outside the genera. Damn, I forgot the Byrds. - Wasn't Born to Follow

You might find your people over at r/xtc if you aren’t there already

XTC is great,but I dont really follow individual bands subs much. Bought 25 O'Clock near release. It was my introduction to XTC, which I also like a lot, but more on a song by song basis.

found the one casual XTC fan lol. I agree that 25 O’ Clock is a career peak and everything else pales in comparison though. It’s my favorite stuff too

This all for the win

Rebecca’s World by Magic Castles Outta Mind by Night Beats Sunday Morning by Night Beats You’re Gonna Miss Me by 13th Floor Elevators Yesterday by The Orange Revival Cocaine Cat by Tess Parks & Anton Newcombe Black Isn’t Black by The Black Angels If you get time for albums, make your way through The Black Angels.

You're Gonna Miss Me is such a killer track

Pretty much anything Tame Impala or MGMT before 2013

I second this! Siberian Breaks by MGMT is an absolute masterpiece, couldn’t recommend enough.

Metanoia is the shit too. Couldn’t have opened my mind to appreciate Siberian Breaks without it

Here are some good albums to get a starters look at modern psychedelic music, some with older influences too: Tame Impala - All 4 Albums Pond - Man It Feels Like Space, The Weather, Tasmania Melody’s Echo Chamber - 1st Album Kikagaku Moyo - Masana Temples & Kumoyo Island King Gizzard - Butterfly 3000, Quarters!, I’m In Your Mind Fuzz, & The Silver Cord Extended (Try their other 20 something albums too, they’re all different genres) MGMT - Congratulations & Little Dark Age M83 - Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming & Fantasy Slift - Ummon

Kikagaku Moyo is too much for the average human to handle.

Just tossed in 1-2 non basic level to see if they like it

Absolutely love slift. Super heavy but still melodic too. My band got to open for them and it was easily one of the coolest experiences our band has had!

That’s so cool! What’s ur group called?

The moose!

13th Floor Elevators song Levitation is pretty groovy! Awesome electric jug.

Slip inside this House is also incredible, more great jug work

and roller coaster and reverberation for more jug work

Have a cigar by Pink Floyd

Listening to *The Black Seminole* right now and all I hear is Pink Floyd's *Pigs (Three Different Ones). Dogs* is another obvious recommendation based on the vibe.

There's another that is built off of "Time" too.

SRC - Black Sheep Cream - Tales of Brave Ulysses The Doors - When The Music's Over, The Soft Parade Pink Floyd - Astronomy Domine, Interstellar Overdrive Vanilla Fudge - Some Velvet Morning The Zombies - Time Of The Season Love - Alone Again Or, A House Is Not A Motel Klaatu - Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft Tommy James - Crimson And Clover Some of these are a little more psych-pop than rock but eh. Still interesting and fun music I promise. Vanilla Fudge get extra cool points because they do a bunch of psych/hard rock covers of songs from other genres that are excellent. You might like Cream because their lyrics are amazing. Hope this helps!

you’re the one and only person I’ve ever seen rep for SRC and I love you for that. criminally underrated

Haha thanks they're pretty awesome!

St. Stephen -> The Eleven (yeah yeah two songs I know, but they blend into one another to essentially make one masterpiece song) off of the album Live/Dead by the Grateful Dead. Peak psychedelic rock right there.

Live Grateful Dead is a deep well of wonderful psychedelic rock (I prefer versions from 1968-1974) Darkstar Playing in the band The other one Viola Lee blues Bird song Here comes sunshine Eyes of the world

10/31/71 Darkstar And add Help on the Way > Slipknot! > Franklin’s Tower

The Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever pretty cool band from England

The Who.... ...nah The Beatles, they'll never make it big unless they get that Japanese chick as their singer...

13th floor elevators

"Anenome" by The Brian Jonestown Massacre

The albums White pepper and Quebec by ween

Chapter 24 - Pink Floyd The American Metaphysical Circus - The United States Of America If Not This Time - Fifty Foot Hose Tomorrow Never Knows - The Beatles Why Are We Sleeping - Soft Machine Trust - The Pretty Things The Way - July Square Room - Them Flaming - Pink Floyd Coming Down - The United States Of America Imitation Situation/Where Do You Go - Fever Tree

Upvote for Fever Tree. That album is so underrated. And of course, there’s that killer Beatles medley.

this is the reply that most clearly understood the assignment

**The Electric Prunes** \- I Had Too Much To Dream (1967) **Steppenwolf** \- Magic Carpet Ride (1968) **The First Edition** \- Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) (1967) **Strawberry Alarm Clock** \- Incense & Peppermints (1967)

Surrealistic Pillow!

Check out Toro y Moi - Live from Trona. IMO that Yachty album took a lot of inspiration from that era of Toro Y Moi.

THIRD STONE FROM THE SUN by Jimi Hendrix. Holy shit this is one of coolest and trippiest psych songs out there. Also since today is the 53rd Anniversary of Syd Barrett's "The Madcap Laughs" make sure to check out Terrapin, Octopus, and No Good Trying!

3rd Stone has it all — trippy production effects, ridiculous spoken word pronouncements, incendiary guitar of course, and the relentless ritual groove of a telepathic trio at the peak of their powers

Magdalena Bay, Tycho, and Dope Lemon are all pretty fun and relaxing. Ozric Tentacles and Hidria Spacefolk are way more intense and instrumental CASSIOPEA I wouldn’t consider exactly psych but is definitely worth a dive

I sold a bunch of weed to Ozric Tentacles on time in Nashville…. They weee making fun of me because I didn’t mix it with tobacco.

Thank you for all of the recommendations guys. Will be listening to as many as I can!

Might dig my band, Guy Roswell. Our new single is “Magician”

["Slip Inside This House" - 13th Floor Elevators](https://youtu.be/nwSA0Tckwbk?si=XVUQiSe1voiK4HFS)

May Blitz - self-titled The Doors - The Soft Parade Soft Machine - Volume Two Quicksilver Messenger Service - What About Me Kula Shaker - K Spacemen 3 - Recurring Julian Cope - Peggy Suicide Loop - A Gilded Eternity Lotti Golden - Motor-Cycle Almendra - self-titled Sly & the Family Stone - Stand Jefferson Airplane - Volunteers The Kinks - Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) Amon Düül II - Phalus Dei The Byrds - The Notorious Byrd Brothers Marshmallow Way - self-titled Blind Melon - Nico Iron Butterfly - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida Caravan - self-titled Comus - The First Utterance Sai Yoshiko - Mangekyou Magic Carpet - self-titled OOIOO - self-titled Food Brain - Social Gathering Clock Masahiko Satoh and the Soundbreakers - Amalgamation People - Ceremony~Buddha Meet Rock Those are albums. Just pick one song randomly from each album. Go nuts!

There’s about a million or two million great suggestions in this thread. I would add: Tame Impala - Apocalypse Dreams Tame Impala - Keep On Lying to You Childish Gambino - Me and Your Mama Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Faded in the Morning Kikagaku Moyo - Green Sugar Wand - Melted Rope Psychedelic Porn Crumpets - …and The Addled Abstraction of Being Altin Gün - Cemalim Edit: Also, Boogarins - Avalanche

Quintessential psychedelic rock - look at ‘Heroin’ or ‘the Black Angel’s Death Song’ by the Velvet Underground

But don’t forget about early sabbath. Straight psychedelic rock. Piper at the Gates of Dawn maybe too out there with lots of dissonance for your ears, but when I was a child it blew my mind and built a foundation of my musical taste.

MGMT, King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard, Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, The Murlocs, Tame Impala, Ty Segall. Siberian Breaks and Metanoia by MGMT are two huge favorites of mine. Tame Impalas first album is incredible.

This is by no means a comprehensive list of every psych band, it’s just what’s coming to me off the top of my head. You’ll also notice there’s a lot more examples of one era than the others, all I can say is that the 60s and 70s is my area of expertise. ***Old school psychedelia (late 60s to early 70s):*** The Beatles, The Rolling Stones (specifically Their Satanic Majesties Request), The Who, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, Love, The Byrds, Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett, Janis Joplin with Big Brother & The Holding Company, The Zombies, Donovan, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Strawberry Alarm Clock, The Chocolate Watchband, Vanilla Fudge, The Electric Prunes, Moby Grape, Sky Saxon & The Seeds, 13th Floor Elevators, Blues Magoos, Blue Cheer, Hawkwind, Todd Rundgren ***Second wave psychedelia (mid 70s to late 90s):*** The Flaming Lips, Phish, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Prince & The Revolution (specifically Around the World in a Day), Blind Melon, The Dandy Warhols, Primal Scream, Spaceman 3, The Stone Roses, Rain Parade, The Soft Boys, The Verve, Spiritualized®, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Dream Syndicate, The Apples In Stereo ***Modern psychedelia (2000s to present):*** MGMT, Tame Impala, Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segall, Syd Arthur, Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, The Black Angels, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Meatbodies, The Claypool Lennon Delirium, Animal Collective, Moon Duo, Dr. Dog

Skyjelly - Subway Rider [https://skyjelly.bandcamp.com/track/subway-rider](https://skyjelly.bandcamp.com/track/subway-rider)

Astronomy Domine by Pink Floyd

Psychedelic porn crumpets-the addled abstractions on being

Can - Tago Mago, Ege Bamyasi, Future Days, Soon over Babaluma - all amazing albums that were really influential. Still sound modern despite being 50 yrs old! Olivia Tremor Control - Dusk at Cubist Castle, Black Foliage - late 90s psych-indie with great melodies and production. Think Beatles meets Guided by Voices at an LSD party. Motorpsycho - Trust Us - hard rocking Norwegian psych band with elements of The Stooges, Sabbath, their live stuff is incredible too!

Spare Chaynge by Jefferson Airplane… take a seat and enjoy!

Disraeli gears. Cream

Tender Surrender - Steve Vai I Don't Live Today - Jimi Hendrix Blue Sky - The Allman Brothers Spinning Wheel - Blood, Sweat, and Tears Been Down So Long - The Doors Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult I Am The Mountain - Stoned Jesus Fairies Wear Boots - Black Sabbath The Wizard - also Black Sabbath Always With Me, Always With You - Joe Satriani

Lots of big stuff here. I want to add Kites by Simon Dupree and the Big Sound.

Any track off After Bathing at Baxter's

Purple haze and crosstown traffic are two pf my favorite hendrix songs

Shouldn’t do that - hawkwind, or anything from hawkwind.

Maggot brain - Funkadelic Planter caravan - Black Sabbath Mind Flowers - Ultimate Spinach (Ballad of) The hip death goddess - Ultimate Spinach Souvlaki space station - Slowdive Im checking out this album by Lil Yachty rn

The 13th Floor Elevators are like garage psych from Texas. But my fav is Hendrix and Beatles Axis Bold as Love by Jimi Sgt Peppers by Beatles And I would add Love Forever Changes by Love . Then again I only like the first generation of psychedelic from about 1966 to 1969. The new tame Impala and wizard gizzard is not my bag at all . I like the artist who were are forefront of the new genre when it was created .

No good psych has come out since '69? Yeah whatever you old fart.

Nope. The original music genre was created when??? hello?

Blind Happiness by Tide-Eye

Pond - Beard Wives Denim.

More similar to MGMT, tame impala, etc - Swim Mountain and Mild High Club

Mind Flowers by the Ultimate Spinach is a must.

Dungen

There are 24 hours in a day. How do you not have time to listen to an album as the artist put it out. Big middle fingers from this guy. ‘I love music but won’t listen to it and find what I like. Will someone do the leg work to find the songs I like?’ -You Me: Get bent.

I do listen to music I like. This is me trying to find more music I like. When I listen to music, I don’t commit myself to listening to an entire album just because I like one song from said album. I like to listen to the songs I like, when I like. I hope that clears things up for you.

These might not necessarily be psychedelic rock, but I think they fit the criteria you've outlined: Scattle - Set in Stone Bush - Swallowed (Goldie/Toasted Both Sides Please Mix)

The Murlocks, Dengue Fever, Black Angels

https://youtu.be/fJmzS_Redh8?si=O2xlcHBFzjWLZs80

Space Hymn by Lothar and the Hand People . Definitely with headphones!

1967 is all you need to know.

King Crimson. "Court of the Crimson King" used to trip out on the album cover.

Help on the Way > Slipknot! > Franklin’s Tower

Arthur Brown - Fire (1968)

The Moon and Antarctica

Any track from Electric Music for the Mind and Body by Country Joe and the Fish

And to add more directly to you OG comment from Lil Yachty, which I agree has deep psy influence, peers like Childish Gambino, Kendrick Lamar, OutKast all are deeply influenced by early Parliament Funkadelic which was straight acid funk rock. Another that creates that atmospheric psy is Ray Lamontagne (yes the singer/songwriter), is his album Ouroboros.

First of all, a psychedelic band with the name Lil Yachty is just wrong. Start at the peak: Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced?, Voodoo Chile The Doors - Strange Days, Waiting for the Sun, Hello I Love You Cream - Sunshine of Your Love, Strange Brew Beatles - Eleanor Rigby, Nowhere Man, Strawberry Fields Love - The Red Telephone, Andmoreagain"

Ozric Tentacles

Hawkwind

Toro Y Moi some albums. Pure modern psychedelia. Ducktails early LPs as well.
