Editor's review

Detroit pop pioneers Outrageous Cherry create sunshine sounds for cloudy days. This retro-active quartet uses ingredients from the Beatles' cookbook to brew its own psychedelic stew, placing particular emphasis on tight vocal harmonies and oddball recording techniques. The '60s never sounded so good.

Biography

Detroit's avante psychedelic pop / rock explorers Outrageous Cherry have developed their craft to new heights with songs sounding as if they’ve been beamed in from other dimensions, the result is an orchestral, fuzzed-up, rock n’ roll freak out.

 
Pianos, trumpets, sitars and tambourines adorn the usual Outrageous Cherry configuration of two squalling guitars over a driving, primal beat, and the lyrics follow corridors of Dylan-esque labyrinths through channels of reverberating echoplex stratospheres.
 
A gesture of musical alchemy in which the spiritual descendants of the Stooges and MC5 confront the technology of Tamla/Motown in search of a new kind of pop music.
