3 stars Well it was good to at least spend some time with this experimental release. MOOLAH were the duo of Maurice and Walter from New York City and "Woe, Ye Demons Possessed" was released on vinyl in 1974. We mostly get piano, percussion and electronics with some voices and effects thrown in this psychedelic stew. They call this their paranormal concert work.

"Crystal Waters" ends with water sounds but the bulk of it is mellow electronics, piano and percussion. "Terror Is Real" opens with experimental sounds as theatrical spoken words join in spelling doom to his listeners. Percussion to the fore when the words stop. Electronics dominate to the end. "Courage" has this buzzing sound in atmosphere to start as stark piano lines come and go. It will then sort of plod along with piano over top. "The Hard Hit" has beats and atmosphere along with piano. A calm before 6 minutes with vocal sounds and atmosphere. "Mirror's" builds quickly and it's quite noisy. Not melodic at all. Twittering sounds 6 minutes in change it up some. "Redemption" is mostly piano and atmosphere. Some spacey winds too.

A pretty good little album but it's a rarity for a reason.
