My Musical Opinion Submitted on: 2009-05-04 |

| Great music CD! Its great listening to it again and again! The more you listen to it, the better it gets. When I was searching for a new, "The Warlocks" CD, I'm glad I found the right one. When I was even listening to, "Cosmic Letdown" over the album, its considered one of my favorites of all time! Originally I was expecting to the album to be like a more common musical and knew what to follow. But the more greater songs to follow from this album, were worth every penny! |

I WISH I STILL LIVED IN THOSE DAYS Submitted on: 2006-11-11 |

| but I can't lol! Music was so much more cool and expiremental back when Spacemen 3 and those cool bands were playing, so thank GOD the Warlocks are here today. It's like hearing three guitars playing at once, because there ARE three guitars playing at once-TRIPPY! The Warlocks also know how to dress like REAL rockstars which is cool because I wear Beatle boots too! Nobody expirements with psychedelic music like the Warlocks because they only use old gear that can make those cool feedback noises. Pink Floyd can suck it! |

Great Psychadelica Submitted on: 2004-04-09 |

This album draws from a number of psychadelic rock influences, but the most pronounced is the Velvet Underground. Taking the original name of the Velvet Underground, the Warlocks pick up where Lou Reed and company left off. The Warlocks have a murky, retro feel - but never comes across stale. Their sound is big and catchy - "The Dope is Good" is probably my favorite. Catchy guitar hooks fill the album along with some backward masking. All in all a great album that acknowledges what made this genre popular in the first place. Turn off the lights, turn on the lava lamps and drop out to some cool rock and roll. |

superb, but with a problem. Submitted on: 2004-01-12 |

| this an absolutely awesome album! flawless from begining to end. the local austrian radio station i listen to plays quite a few cuts off this disc which is how i heard about this band. they need to play more. but i have a problem, and it doesn't have much to do with the music or even the band for that matter. this disc will not play in my home cd player. this disc makes my cd player feeze up. it works about 99% ok on my computer and flawlessly on my stereo system at work, which is not a great player by any means. but why can't my home system read it? as i understand it, it has something to do with the copyright protection. you techno-geeks have gone too far when a legally purchased cd won't work on a normal home stereo system. this is the only cd i have ever owned that this has happened to. buyer beware!!!! |

Psychedelic Velvet Underground Revisited Submitted on: 2003-11-26 |

| This CD is absolutely amazing. I got to see the Warlocks in concert in Austin, Texas when they opened for Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. I was blown away by their raw & gritty live performance. The next day I went and bought both of their full length albums including Phoenix. The album opens with "Shake the Dope Out" a pure rock n' roll materpiece. Next is "Hurricane Heart Attack", which is yet another hard hitting rock n roll tune. Bobby Hecksher's distorted vocal style completes the bands sound. My favorite song on this album however is "Baby Blue" The use of the sitar completed the song and took the band to the next level. Imagine early Pink Floyd mixed with The Velvet Underground and you have the Warlocks. Excellent album worthy of much praise. The USA needs more bands like The Warlocks. Long live the 'locks!! |
