Album Notes

Dark, spacey, ambient psychedelia - I love it. This amazing CD contains no lyrics to interfere with the multi-layered texture of the music. The band's instruments consist of guitars, drums and programmed effects, all blended together in lengthy, winding tracks.

SubArachnoid Space (named for a small part of the brain) hails from San Francisco. Members of the band include Charnel House head honcho Mason Jones (guitar), Melynda (guitar), Jason (bass), Chris (drums). As the wandering meodies demonstrate, this quartet prides themselves on spontaneity. All of the tracks on Ether Or were recorded improvisationally - a smart move, given the quality of tracks like "Whispers of Momentum" and "Shady Character." My current favorite is "Repetive Smile" for its hypnotic guitar work.

The bass sliding in the background is subtle and provides a good canvas on which the drums and guitars paint a dark scene. If you are into experimental textural tunes, this is a good band to investigate. Check it out for yourself, and I'll see you in the Ether. - Eric S. (Voltage Magazine)

Oh Hells Yes

This disc burns from start to finish. If you need to get your focus on, play this. If you need to get your mellow on, play this. If you need to relaxify and rockout all at once, play this. In short, when what you need is music, play this.
