Grouper AIA Alien Observer Rare Yellow Electric OOP! Mint! Private Press

Limited self-released album from Liz Harris aka Grouper, immediately sold out on release, part of a two volume series. Edition of 1000 copies. Alien Observer, with its cover art featuring black and white galaxies spiralling into the void, is more classically psychedelic, with a muzzy dreamtone sound that combines the cosmo-liturgical appeal of Popol Vuh and Ash Ra Tempel with huge blooms of reverb that unfold from the tracks like mandalas in slow motion, vocals that blur into endless afterimages of themselves and an approach to the ritual use of F/X that is almost PSF in its exaggerated effect. You could live in these beautiful recordings forever, the perfect hallucinatory rendering of endless female vox, dissolving guitars and slowly rotating galaxies of sound. Space, as they say, is deep. As new. Rare and super desirable!
