PSYCHIC SKIN “Mirror”



You remember that time Werner Herzog was talking about what it's like filming impossible movies with Klaus Kinski in the jungle, all that heat and creeping death all around? “It's not that I don't like it, I love it, I just love it against my better judgment.” That's how I feel about this tape, a collection of b-sides and scraps that didn't fit onto Psychic Skin's more formal releases. It's ritual warlock-folk from Kentucky, a bubbling cauldron of woodsy incantations made to unnerve and bewitch and confuse. I feel like if you listen to this too many times, you'll turn into a spider. Is that what you want? Then you know what to do.
