4 stars I like this album a lot. King Buffalo are playing a kind of psychedelic stoner rock. On this debut album, they were deploying a nice mix of lighter and "more stoner" moments as well as shorter and longer songs. "Sleeps on a Vine" or "Goliath" (both part together) might give you a good example what to expect. Their calmer moments, e.g. "Down From Sky" have me thinking of early Tea Party (in their more silent moments, of course) minus the oriental ornaments.

Nothing too progressive, really, but what I would like to describe as "organic stoner rock", if that might be a thing...

Nice artwork, too. I guess that's a part of the namesake constellation integrated there. So yeah, it's kind of space rock, too ;-)
