Pilgrims and Psychonauts (Vinyl)

A battered VW bus rattles down the Hippie Trail in ’72. In the back: a number of strangers with different destinies.

Pilgrims and Psychonauts is a hypnotic neo-psych concept album. Spiritual longing meets pounding drums, layers of analog space synths, sitars and flutes – all wrapped in a darkly melodic, ceremonial groove. Think kraut, think mantra, think psychedelic freakout – reborn.

The album features over 30 musicians, including members from The Soundtrack of Our Lives, Øresund Space Collective, Exorcist GBG, and Papir. Three vinyl editions. Matte gatefold with etched mantras, locked groove, and a design inspired by a forgotten ’70s underground magazine.

Ships from Malmö, Sweden. Tracked shipping available worldwide.
