A procession of war leaders marching between lines of real human corpses... Brrr. Death metal?
Nope. Fruity psych-pop from 1968, sweet as candy floss.

Maybe because it fits too well.

Except for Beachy Head of course, everything else on this cover is deceptive.

This I think is the best example, though that's just an irony.

Great to know! Didn't know exactly who or what the cover really was.

This is a pretty terrifying album cover. I would never have guessed it would be so jazzy.

Yes! I actually found that from your chart. It really is a great album it's a shame it's not well known.

Okay, that's cool! 😁 Yeah, it is a shame, but that's why we have this website, so we can share undiscovered gems like this, psychedelic or not!

Wtf! Have you seen my 1960s/1969 chart or what? I decided to listen to the album just because of how psychedelic it looked, I was a little disappointed when I found that it wasn't psychedelic, but because of its high quality, I kept listening to it. Spot on!

Yes! I actually found that from your chart. It really is a great album it's a shame it's not well known.

Bat Out of Hell. The cover makes you think of a heavy metal rebel style, but the music delivers nothing like that.

The Sacred Mushroom - Self Titled

from the album cover and name of the band it looks like a straight up psychedelic rock album. It's actually a Blues Rock album.

Do you not check our charts? 🫢

Grimes - Visions. It's an electronic-dance-ish album. I'm not the biggest fan of it.. but Oblivion is a really good song. You should at least check that out.

I do check them out. I've actually been listening to a ton of albums on our charts that I otherwise would pay no attention to. I only have so much time.

It gives the impression of an album consisted of musique concrete or avant-garde while it's an awesome noise pop/shoegaze affair.

We should say what we think it looks like and what it really is. Like that cover looks like it would be death metal or something like that. What is it?
