The second long player by the southern German formation ELARA SUNSTREAK BAND fascinates with a grandiose, mind-expanding mix of stoner/progressive and psychedelic rock. Strictly limited to 500 copies worldwide, 'Vostok 1' will be released as a CD in digifile format and as a transparent blue colored double vinyl edition with gatefold sleeve on SULATRON. With their debut album 'Deli Bal', released in 2017, the progressive / psychedelic band EL ARA SUNS TRE AK BAND, based in southern Germany, advanced to highly regarded hopes of the genre. Originally started as a quartet and now playing in a compact trio formation and influenced by PIN K FLO YD, MONS TER MAGNE T and TOOL , the formation proves with their new album that the expectations placed on them were correct. The band explores their musical cosmos on 'Vostok 1' in a playful and inspiring way and invites you to a mind-expanding trip into exciting sound spheres at the interface of stoner/progressive and psychedelic rock. The trio was supported during the recordings by guest singers FELI X SE YBOTH (on the title track 'Vostok 1') and CHRIS TIAN WICK on Hammond organ and mellotron. A fantastic work with four epic monster tracks in the best 70s retro sound.
