Hey dudes, there’s a great new album that I’m in love with from a brand-new psychedelic outfit from Nashville called The Sufis and I want to put a vinyl copy of their debut on your turntable too.
It comes out on July 3rd on Cornershop’s Ample Play Records. The Sufis demo was handed off to the Cornershop guys from another Nashville psych band that I love called The Paperhead, and they knew straightaway that they wanted to release this album. Cornershop states:
“The Sufis’s album was so instant, that we knew instantly we had to put it out on Ample Play. It’s incredibly adventurous and memorable. They record using old analogue recording equipment and effects, some of which they have rebuilt from scratch. The musicianship on the record is stunning.
We also love the fact that the only show they played (that we’re aware of prior to recording the album) is where they set themselves up in the middle of a large room and arranged their speaker/amps in all four corners. They had the audience in a circle around them. Part gig, part happening and part experiment. This is a group with ideas, with psychedelic ideas.”
So for now, dig a taste of The Sufis psych magic and then enter to win the vinyl below!
To enter to win a fresh piece of Sufis vinyl for your turntable, just post below with your favorite psych jam. Sound fair? And to make it extra fair, we will also accept European entries. Good luck! Winner will be chosen on June 19th.
(And if you don’t win, you can grab a copy here.)
