4 stars An outstanding experience!

If you are looking for a true space/psychedelic sound, where you can close your eyes and enjoy a quite amusing trip, you should seriously give this band a try! Without further ado, let's go to the analysis:

1) Arrangements Contrasting smooth and calm atmospheres with heavier passages, with lots of heavy metal guitars and psychedelic effects and synthesizers, we can notice here a very original sound, exploring modern textures with 70's flavor here and there. But in this work, the modern prevails over the old. Good taste arrangements and fine production. 5/5 stars.

2) Instruments The keys uses since modern ambient synths to hammond old-fashioned style, sustaining the base to the guitar-driving songs. The drums are strong and restless, not following a straight line. The bass is quite creative and audible. 5/5 stars. 3) Vocals The vocals are good, but not the best thing about this band actually. There is a female voice sometimes working as backing vocals and sometimes used in spoken words passages. The main singer has a deep-thick voice, which works very well in the context. Lots of special effects are used in order to create a psychedelic ambience. Unfortunately, there are parts in which the vocals and the background sound got confused, and at least I couldn't understand what the lyrics were saying or define the instruments. 4/5 stars.

It's incredible how underrated a band can be. I've never heard about them since a few days ago, and found them out by chance on youtube. This band is amazing; they are consistent and inspired in this work as a whole. A true space/psychedelic effort. It's worth joining to this trip. I give it 4 stars!
