Mushroom Gods

Sometimes coincidentally your footsteps crosses an unknown path.
A while ago I became aware of the cultish British psych/spece/whatever band Mushroom Gods.

From their own information:
"We are one of the best British underground neo psychedelic progressive rock groups of the late 90's to come out of Leeds, perhaps too underground for our own good as we where never signed to a major record deal but had a large following of spores around the country. Extensive touring gave us an energy and a freakout in our live sound quite unlike our peers always unfashionable and always unapologetic for it. We are Influenced by a real mix of bands; Hawkwind, Amon Duule 2, Can, Tangerine Dream, Jimi Hendrix, Big Black, Stooges, Velvet Underground, Pere Ubu, Soft Machine, Captain Beefheart and of course early Pink Floyd we where born in the wrong era but are still die hard hippies . The Mushroom Gods are: Lost Johnny keyboard, vocals Dick Freek drums Mathew Corbett sitar, flute, effects Fast Elbert Kram guitar CJD Bass, vocals if you wish to contact or more info; mushroom@hotmail.co.uk if you want the music for fwee go to....................... http://thepiratebay.org/search.php?q=mushroom+gods&audio=on ...................and download now its not illegal i own the fkin music!"

I couldn't have said it better myself. Just go for it! It's great!
They should at least have been as big as Hawkwind (especially as H-wind of the 90s wasn't too intersting, impo).

  1. Hi Oax mate

    glad your spiritual guide has led you to the m-gods stuff, just thought I’d add I’ve officially released all of it in glorious re-mastered Technicolor on cd in America on Amazon.com or mp3 in Europe from Amazon.co.uk if anyone wants the official release otherwise yeah get it from pirate-bay it’s all cool with me , happy people still listen to the grooves.

    Cheers

    Good to know. You know, our own little bastardious duo easily musical and spiritual feel connected with bands/guys like M Gods. Open and free in mind.
