1000 only pressed on limited edition ORANGE Vinyl & DL card. Super rare self-released recordings from 2000, from the Philadelphia psych rockers; a must-have insight into their long, strange trips. Collated from a limited run original CDr, remastered and double-dosed for maximum sound. A viral jam session remastered onto vinyl for the very first time. The missing link between John Cage’s 4’33” and Merzbow’s ultimate noise; a grinding cacophony tempered with motorik precision. “Immerse yourself in the gloopily transcendental pleasures of the world’s finest purveyors of psych-rock magnificence.” The Quietus. “Few contemporary bands understand psychedelia’s weird mix of weightlessness and heaviosity better than Bardo Pond.” Uncut. A deconstructed masterclass that concludes with the mystical rampage of ‘Into Something Else’, a ten-minute slice of sludge blues at its gnarliest. “Bardo Pond are no ordinary band.” Drowned In Sound. Track List: Side A. 1 Sit Sleep 2 Cymbals 3 Syn Dept. Side B. 4 Before 5 Into Something Else
