Acid Mothers Temple - 'Interstellar Guru & Zero' (Homeopathic Records) 3 1/2 stars
Another decent work from the Japanese space-noise rockers coming your cosmic way from the Acid Mothers Temple camp. Like some of the other ATM releases, this import CD has just two tracks. First there's "Astral Projection From Holy Shangrila" (18:38) where it's taylor-made for the headset - but for several reasons, it's not much different from many other Acid Mothers titles. Has some lyrics that repeats itself at the beginning but after the eight-minute mark, it sounds a bit like a mutated Led Zeppelin song. Then, we get the lengthy title cut "Interstellar Guru & Zero" (39:02) for the good of an all-out fully bloomed psychedelic freak-out with the heavy space-noise rock element apparently put on hold. CD comes in a thin cardboard holder - in a specially cut fold-out cover. Similar to that of a die-cut album, but of course in the compact version.
