This Blinding Light

Mountain CD

Mantras for a new millennium. Sonic schizophrenia. Mirror of the divine. Gateway to the stars. This Blinding Light from Seattle, WA have been exploring the realms of raucous repetition and frenetic frequencies for the past 7 years. They have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with Spectrum (Sonic Boom of Spacemen 3), Indian Jewelry, Spindrift, Master Musicians of Bukakke, Suishou No Fune, Kinski and many other great bands.

“This Blinding Light follow in the astromaniacal tradition of bands like hawkwind, loop, and spacemen 3, peddling a kind of enlightened-brute psych rock that wallows in the fuzzy murk while aspiring for a higher state of consciousness…”  – Dave Segal, The stranger
