FEAR ITSELF / FEAR ITSELF 1968 DOT  TRUE 1st PRESS

•••••  STUNNINGLY POWERFUL & DARK DELIVERY, ESSENTIAL ACID BLUES ROCK WITH DOOMY/DARK RIFFING! Sought out for a reason, Ellen McIlwaine's deeply moving vocal delivery really pushes the heavy jamming, especially on the moodier numbers that venture into proto-metal riffing & overdriven bass tones on "Underground River" "For Suki" the extedended 8 minute jammer "In My Time of Dying" and "Lazarus."  Fans of early heavy rock in the psychedelic era will treasure this one.
