(2017) Sundays and Cybele - Chaos and Systems
Review: Sundays & Cybele are a Japanese psychedelic rock collective whose only constant member since their 2004 inception has been founder Kazuo Tsubouchi. The group plays a swirling, colorful, ecstatic form of psych that is influenced by Krautrock, dub, and Donovan-style folk-rock. It’s heavy, but not in the overwhelmingly intense way of cosmic freakout bands such as Acid Mothers Temple. Distorted guitars are a significant part of the group’s sound, but they’re merely one element, and they don’t drown everything else out. The album’s title track begins with thumb pianos and synth arpeggios, bubbling up with blurry, echo-covered vocals and a submerged but busy rhythm. This launches into the sprawling “Butterfly’s Dream,” which features energetic, splashy drums and Santana-esque guitar soloing. The band then dips into the more hippie folk end of the psych pool, and the funky, bouncy “Brujo” plays around with echo trickery. The album ends with an even more epic space jam called “Paradise Come.” While the group’s sound is generally sunny and optimistic, occasionally some melancholy peeks through, and here they sound just as lonely as they do enthralled and in love with the world.
