about

"Songs old and new washed over us in a field down in the land of fermented apples and ancient druidity. The Wise One Kozmik Ken introduced us to a band from Glasgow, almost as a warning. An audience can traverse the landscapes and haunt the grounds from branches in the trees as spectators, or they can submit to the cleansing and ride as a participant. They can take on the waves of sludge and drone as though it were their own. They can hold on to their quivering seats, side by side with the messengers on stage.
The band took us to where we needed to go.
We felt every tidal charge of fuzz and battered alarm carrying our spirits higher, higher and truly, we knew what it was to feel the clouds gather over that cliffside in Devon and form a bridge over the final fall.
We hear of weight and air and the crushing impact of musicians perfectly in tune with their environment, their audience, their pasts, their future. We hear of ecstatic oblivion and smoking sage lit from candles and huffed in forests, of ceremonies unchanged over ages and symbols held in highest accord
This is only hearing.
On this day, I walked in the sunset and joined a communal bathing in the psychedelic sludge doom of Glasgow's Headless Kross. Picts in a Druid land, allowing us to FEEL with our hearts, a definitively present and righteous summoning of the elemental forces, concentrated in echoed space howls and supremely smoked-up churning.
We ascended together and shared in the delights of another plain's banquet. Some of us never returned.
We hugged goodbye by the apple trees and finished the cider off before sleeping under the blanket of stars.
That was the last time we would see Kozmik Ken and it warms me knowing that he loved the Headless Kross set as much as I did.

Rest in Power Kozmik Ken."

about

Headless Kross Glasgow, UK

Headless Kross are the ideal soundtrack to the slow unravelling of the world as we understand it. Their sound has been described as psychedelic doom - monolithic riffs, rumbling bass and primal beats lurk behind waves of effects, all strangely underpinned by ethereal shrieks of half heard words, possibly real, possibly not. ... more
