Stoned In Love - LP Mega Dodo

Hailing from Philadelphia, the launching pad for many great neo-psych groups, we now get The Orange Drop. The Orange Drop blends dreamy psychedelia with some darker, acid-laced sounds of the sixties. Brian Jonestown Massacre fans (particularly the early records) should appreciate The Orange Drop's approach that is both lo-fi and polished. If this is garage rock, it was made in a garage that conceals an amateur LSD lab. There's a definite feeling of late sixties California here as well, and even during the moments of darkness there is always a sense of distorted sunshine getting through.

Indeed, The Orange Drop is great tangerine suspended in the bright blue sky of dawn. Re-inventing 60s psychedelia with a 21st century twist of experimentalism, Stoned In Love is bursting at the seams with supersonic guitar riffs, beautiful kooky singing, mighty drums and bass, a Beatle-esque risk-taking dance between styles and digital mind-altering tricks of sound, it is the fanfare of a gang of young musical magicians discovering just how brilliant they really are.

So let The Orange Drop seep into your ears placing an accessible comforting fog, supported through searing drone guitar with a backend propelled heartbeat that peaks through the clouds, creating a fluidly absorbing sound a psychedelic concerto for the twenty first century, with movements each of which gradually ups the ante, the guitar soaring ever higher as the band dig into a fantastic drugged out groove. Tune into Stoned In Love and turn on to a seriously tight, highly experimental, psych rock band.
