Sundays & Cybele On The Grass

Vinyl LP pressing. Sunday's & Cybele (Cybele no Nichiyobi) is a four piece psychedelic band formed in Hokkaido, Japan in 2004. Tsubouchi is the main guy who writes all the music derived from 60's/70's Japanese psych rock. On the Grass is Sundays & Cybele's fourth full length record. Rather than a retread of the '60s psych vibe or ethnic tones of their last LP Chaos & Systems, Tsubouchi's signature melancholic sounds are now realized in layers of synthesizer and drone. The result finds them leaning towards progressive rock and marks the end of Neo-psychedelia. Think Dark Side of the Moon if it were literally recorded on the moon by a group of marooned astronauts. Down tempo '70s grooves align with spaced out tones to make On the Grass a rewarding listen, and perhaps the best one we've heard from Sundays & Cybele so far.
