Eidetic Seeing biography
Formed in August 2009 EIDETIC SEEING are a Brooklyn/New York based spaced out trio featuring guitarist Sean Forlenza, Danilo Coleman (bass) and Paul Feitzinger (drums, synths). Various live shows finally prompted the production of an eponymous EP, consisting of four skillful tracks. Released on Earwax Records in 2011 this band introduction was recorded live in one take, so there is no studio trickery involved.

Musically EIDETIC SEEING are drawing heavy psych as well as spacey influences from Hawkwind, White Hills, Oneida, La Otracina to name a few, overall headed by a cosmic wah-wah and reverb-drenched guitar.

4 stars 'Drink The Sun' is the first full-fledged EIDETIC SEEING album - and they have refined the style, overall it drifts into a heavier direction here. We are in a comfortable situation, even with the possibility to compare, as Sean Forlenza and his band mates have reworked three tracks for this production which already had a place on their debut EP. For a quick summary this means that the space rock substance takes a backseat towards a stronger heavy psych, stoner and doom sentiment in the vein of White Hills, La Otracina ... yes, even augmented by Black Sabbath impressions here and there.

Genre typical the songs are predominantly instrumental, otherwise the rare vocals are presented in a way which comes rather agressive, echoed and distorted. To name one of these aforementioned three exemplars, Deep Falafel Prophet features great dynamics as well as a mix of echoed and crunchy guitar turbulences - certainly improved in comparison to the first attempt. And then supreme importance when it comes to the shifty Primeribneon-Waves And Radiation - what a great verve and creativeness - bassist Danilo Coleman cares for a hell of a groove and they also freak out in between, especially drummer Paul Feitzinger.

If you like a substantial cocktail mixed by fuzzy guitars, rumbling bass and restless drums you're on the right track hereby. Although I liked their eponymous EP due to the outstanding couple 'Hebrew Scrabble/Hush' this album is surely matured concerning outworking and production. The compositions are varied, Sean Forlenza's guitar appears more tricky in general, the synths are well-placed, the rhythm section acts lively throughout. Overall a recommended effort which deserves your attention.

3 stars EIDETIC SEEING are a new space rock trio from New York. This is their first attempt, an introduction of four songs, basically instrumental, but here and there also decorated with some rather weird vocal contributions. Hebrew Scrabble/Hush opens with a wonderful warm-up, this is especially dedicated to Sean Forlenza's soaring and echoing space guitar. The extended track seems completely improvised, they constantly alternate between groovy rocking parts in the vein of Earthless or Hawkwind and cosmic excursions.

This is not reworked, recorded in one take in the studio, prompted by various live shows though, where they managed to refine their interplay. The other three songs also variate in pace and mood, between heavy psych and space rock headed by a wah-wah and reverb-drenched guitar. As for the result this is not plain jamming material but rather entertaining stuff overall. I'm sure this EP will not stay as an one-shot happenstance - 3.5 stars.

Thanks to rivertree for the artist addition.
