The Infinite Trip is a UK based
psychedelic group. This CD (70 mins) features
tracks taken from the bands last two records (All Aboard The Mothership and
Brain Blossom). The duo (Peter and Jules) have made 8 records. All the trackson
the album are between 7:40 and 9 mins long. Enigma Vibration starts things off
with synths and drums and pretty dreamy state. The spoken word like vocal
reminds me of Sky Saxon. Quite a dark vibe musically but a nice guitar solo at
the end complimented by some spacey keyboards. Who is it, starts with a funky
wah guitar and some nice drumming, just wish the thing really grooved. I still
dig the song though. Children of Infinity starts with a guitar riff inspired by
Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun. Some nice keyboard playing on this
track. The Mothership is next and features some nice guitar playing and I loved
the spacey more electronic stuff with lots of delays in the mid section. The
Illustrated Man has a cool synth that sounds like the one on Welcome to the
Machine to start things off but it is a quite dark song, very relaxed and
spacey with a lot of vocals. Brain Blossom has a quite long guitar solo. I
really miss a good bass line to groove with the drums on a lot of the
tracks. Tomorrows World is a great track
and one of my faves with a very nice guitar solo. Quarters of the Moon meanders
a bit and is more vocal and guitar oriented. The bass line is more clearly made
present on this track as well. Freedom above all finished off your Infinite
Trip…
I
really enjoyed a lot of the music and tracks on this record but am not a big
fan of the vocals, although he tells some really cool stories. The drums have a
big open sound production that dominates the sound production at times but also
works very well a lot of the times.
Overall, this is a great introduction to this very cool UK duo music
project.
