'Psych For Sore Eyes 2' is out now on vinyl, with a full digital release following on November 3.
The second in Sonic Cathedral's occasional series of compilation EPs comes once again on double 7" vinyl wrapped in a mind-melting package conceived and printed by London design trio Heretic.
Following an announcement on The Quietus, it was revealed to the world at Liverpool International Festival Of Psychedelia last Friday and promptly sold out from Piccadilly Records’ World Of Psychedelic Wax Wonders stall, despite the delivery being delayed in heavy traffic on the M6. Further copies went on sale online on Monday morning and the demand promptly crashed Big Cartel.
'Psych For Sore Eyes 2' features six exclusive tracks of contemporary psychedelia from the likes of Morgan Delt, White Fence, Damaged Bug (John Dwyer of Thee Oh Sees' solo project), Psychic Ills, Hills (Swedish associates of Goat) and newcomers Prayer Meeting (whose Jamie Putnam has co-curated the EP).
The full tracklisting is:
A. Morgan Delt – ‘Elastic Id’
B1. White Fence – ‘Before He Met Her (Decomposing Lime)’
B2. Damaged Bug – ‘Pet Programs And Games’
C. Psychic Ills – ‘Come Around’
D1. Hills – ‘Montelius Väg’
D2. Prayer Meeting – ‘Black Echo (White Mountain)’
The first volume of ‘Psych For Sore Eyes’, released in February 2013, has been described as a landmark release in the burgeoning new psych movement and featured Hookworms, White Manna, Lorelle Meets The Obsolete, The Vacant Lots, Ttotals and The Band In Heaven (wrapped in an amazing 3D sleeve, also designed by Heretic).
