Twilight Gods In The Twilight Zone / Various (Dlx)- Twilight Gods In The Twilight Zone / Various [Deluxe] (PREORDER)
As he lay on his deathbed, Aldous Huxley (famed author of Brave New World and The Doors Of Perception) asked his wife for a final 100 microgram dose of LSD. It was 11.30am, November 22nd, 1963. Within the hour, President John F. Kennedy was publicly slaughtered in downtown Dallas, Texas and the U.S. (and, indeed, the world) erupted into a swirling nightmare of War, further Assassinations and seismic Social Ruptures. Were the Shuddering and Lysergic decades that followed some kind of splinter from Huxley's hallucinating mind's eye, an alternate timeline of Tyranny and Tumult akin to the landscape of a Silicon-Age Hieronymus Bosch? For the very first time, soundtracked largely from Private-Press obscurities and Evangelist vanities, the Youthquake era of 1962-1979 is presented in an hallucinagenic brew of speech and song. Christian Psyche Rock and Psyche Folk acts foretell the 'Mark Of The Beast' and the Apocalypse. Cloistered Nuns mourn the fallen Regent. Hillbilly Seers chronicle churning revolution, Rockabilly Sirens chart despair and Hipster Prophets prosletisize for outsider Jesus Freaks. Desert Psyche loners howl of a sunburnt internal Armageddon, Forgotten Song-Poem Geniuses prophesize ill-omens and spiritual assault while firebrand Preachers warn of the Communist Menace, Drug-Fuelled Delirium, Bad Trips and Economic Enslavement. A kaleidoscopic feverdream of Faith, God, Threat and Social Fragmentation.
