Gaze into Tomorr's Grazing Lands

Acid Cosmonaut Records is pleased to announce the release of Tomorr's debut album.

Born in Empoli in 2017, the trio takes its name from the mountain that rises above Berat, the city of 1001 windows; inspired by traditional Albanian music (whose language they inherit in some of their lyrics), their sounds are rooted in the harshest doom metal, burdened with tribal rhythms and dark atmospheres.

The images and settings of the band come to life in ruins carved by ancient customs, the slowness and fatigue of old gestures of a rural world that gives nothing away. A hymn to the most isolated villages, where stone still wins over concrete.


   1. Kaba
    2. Vargmal
    3. Varr
    4. Grazing Land
    5. Terra
    6. The 1001 Windows Village

Tomorr will be released on 6/11/2020
Preorder from 14/10/2020 on

New Release: SDANG! - La Malinconia delle Fate


We're very happy to announce our first coproduction, La Malinconia delle Fate, by the post/experimental/heavy/progressive/instrumental duo SDANG, made in collaboration with La Fornace Dischi, Dreaminggorilla, Taxi Driver Records and Totem Schwan.  


"An aurally stimulating release that will impress all who hear it, ‘La malinconia delle fate’ is stimulating, thought provoking and, well, just damn good fun. You will struggle to hear a better thirty-six minutes of purely instrumental music this year."

P.S. Speaking of video, have you seen the videoclip for Hikikomori, taken from IZO's debut?

ORION - BUILDERS OF COSMOS is coming!


On March we will release, together with Taxi Driver Records and Sailors Overdrive Records, the first album by Orion, Builders of Cosmos!

The band was formed in 2014 by members of different bands such as Woodwall, Mexican Mud and Army of Angry Youth. Some months later, Richard (former Mexican Mud bass player) was invited to join the band on guitar. After a while they decided to finally fix the lineup by moving Matteo (vocals) also to lead guitar and replacing the first bass player with Richard. Each member has contributed into putting their musical experience into the songs: their inspirations come from different kinds of genres, mixing Black Sabbath, bits of metal here and there, grunge (especially for the vocal lines) and of course classic stoner rock.
Orion are: Pietro (drums), Richard (vocals, bass), Andrea (guitar) and Matteo (vocals, guitar).

And now, enjoy the album trailer!

IZO AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER


After a lazy 2015, we're very happy to announce you that our sixth production, the debut album by doomsters IZO is on the way! And we've got a very special offer for you! Every preorder for this album will receive another of our productions for free, at the same shipping price! Yay!

Thrillingly misanthropic in their approach, IZŌ drench their post-apocalyptic vision of the world in waves of feedback and pummeling guitars.
IZO are a doom/stoner/ sludge band of Lecce with psychedelic hues, formed in the winter of 2013, and came to the final arrangement in August of 2014, after several lineup changes.
Influenced by bands as Sleep, Electric Wizard, Mastodon, Ufomammut, Neurosis, Black Sabbath and Yob, they have a dark and dirty sound, obtained using old tube heads, cones and vintage analogic pedals, exasperated by slow and oppressive rhythms, mixed with very short parts of fast stoner oldschool.

THE BOY'S GOOD NEWS


EN After working together this summer to organize one of the Italian dates of Elder and Mos Generator European Tour, we are pleased to announce our merger with ... The Smoking Goat Records!
The label of our friend Matteo Signanini, responsible for the release of the excellent second album by Prehistoric Pigs, become one entity with Acid Cosmonaut Records, so you will soon find available on our Bandcamp page the aforementioned album and the debut album by Woodwall!
The Smoking Goat Records instead become The Smoking Goat Studio Recording, the "official" recording studio of our label.
And there's more: thanks to this joinT venture, 2016 promises to be full of news: in addition to the previously announced new album by DSW, we are planning the debuts by Orion and IZŌ and a split of which we hope to announce soon the details.
Stay tuned, stay psych!

A CALL FOR HELP FROM DEEPER SPACE


EN Dear Cosmonauts, as you may have noticed (or maybe not) 2015 was the first year since our foundation in which we have not produced anything like label.
Unfortunately our policy of music for all (with digital copies available Name Your Price and physical copies at very cheap prices) is proving to be unsustainable in the long run: for example, our "best seller", Chasma Hideout of Brain Pyramid, has sold 26 copies in CD and has been downloaded 271 times, of which only 39 were purchased.
 

2016 will be a pivotal year for the survival of our activity (which does not affect us as people, but only as a label) and, therefore, from today we are forced to introduce some changes:
- digital copies will no longer be offered for free, but at a fixed price of 2 €
- the price of the CDs will be increased from 5 to 8 € (with the exception of Mindwarp EP) and t-shirts from 10 to 12 €
On the other hand, we have added new advantageous purchasing opportunities:
- shirt+CD packages for each of our releases (here)
- a mega bundle containing all our releases, a t-shirt of your choice and bonus material like stickers, flyers, pins and miniposter (here)

Next year we're ready for you our first release on vinyl (the previously announced new DSW album), the CD edition of the new album by Brain Pyramid (here's the vinyl edition released by Vincebus Eruptum) and a new, interesting band of which we hope to talk you soon.

We trust in your support ... and help us spread the word! We hope to still have so much new psychedelia to make you discover!
The Acid Cosmonaut Records' Staff

ITA Cari Cosmonauti, come avrete notato (o forse no) questo 2015 è stato il primo anno dalla nostra fondazione in cui non abbiamo prodotto nulla come etichetta.
Purtroppo la nostra politica di musica per tutti (con copie digitali disponibili ad offerta libera e copie fisiche a prezzi molto economici) si sta rivelando insostenibile sulla lunga distanza: per fare un esempio, il nostro "bestseller", Chasma Hideout dei Brain Pyramid, ha venduto 26 copie in CD ed è stato scaricato 271 volte, di cui solo 39 sono state acquistate

Il 2016 sarà un anno fondamentale per la sopravvivenza della nostra attività (che non riguarda noi come persone, ma esclusivamente come etichetta) e perciò a partire da oggi siamo costretti ad introdurre alcuni cambiamenti:
- le copie digitali non saranno più ad offerta libera, ma ad un prezzo fisso di 2 €
- il prezzo dei CD sarà aumentato da 5 ad 8 € (con l'eccezione dell'EP dei Mindwarp) e le magliette da 10 a 12 €
D'altro canto, abbiamo inserito nuove vantaggiose possibilità di acquisto, ovvero:
- pacchetti maglietta+disco per ognuna delle nostre uscite (qui)
- un mega fardello contenente tutte le nostre uscite, una maglietta a vostra scelta e materiale bonus come adesivi, flyer, miniposter e spille (qui)

L'anno prossimo abbiamo pronti per voi quella che sarà la nostra prima uscita in vinile (l'ormai annunciato da tempo nuovo album dei DSW), l'edizione in CD del nuovo album dei Brain Pyramid (trovate qui l'edizione in vinile stampata da Vincebus Eruptum) e una nuova, interessante band di cui speriamo di potervi parlare presto.

Confidiamo nel vostro supporto e... aiutateci a spargere la voce! Speriamo di avere ancora tanta nuova psichedelia da farvi scoprire!

Brain Pyramid - Chasma Hideout Available!


Cosmonauts! Chasma Hideout, the stunning debut album by Brain Pyramid is now available for download from our Bandcamp! Name Your Price, as in the best Acid Cosmonaut Records tradition!
There are also physical copies available!



"They have a structured but still jammy approach, as the Sabbathian beginning of “Lucifer” unfolds topped with psychedelic guitar effects swirl, and a crisply layered production that results in a fat, front-of-the-speaker kind of sound."
The Obelisk

"The whole album is one massive jam-based exercise in noise and volume and when Brain Pyramid unleash the noise they become a more frightening prospect in the realm of Stoner/Psych Rock. Brain Pyramid add elements of 60s/70s based Psychedelic sounds and noises which gives this album an adventurous and exciting feel to it."
The Sludgelord

"Capturing the spirit of jamming out in the country-side and lathering it up with some toothy distortion and sweet-finger licks, there's a lot of unruly and vibrant energy coursing through the album as it riffs and rips all over the place."
Ride with the Devil

"At times it feels like one massive glorious jam but throughout there is an enterprise and inventiveness which just as potently leaves senses basking and passions greedy. If the album is your introduction to Brain Pyramid, be prepared for one ruggedly spellbinding ride."
The Ringmaster Review

"With more emphasis on the ‘heavy’ part of the ‘Heavy Psychedelic’ genre come France’s face-melting trio Brain Pyramid with an album full of free-flowing thick heavy riffs, warped out guitar bending, and masterfully crafted songs to unite acid droppers and dope rollers the world over."
Heavy Planet

And now... Brain Pyramid!


We're stoked to announce our next release: Chasma Hideout, the debut album by French Heavy Psych trio Brain Pyramid!


Brain Pyramid was formed in November 2012, in Rennes (Brittany—France). This is the initiative of the actual lead guitarist Gaston Lainé and the drummer Baptiste Gautier-Lorenzo.
Influenced by the sweet old rock n roll (Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, Sabbath, Motörhead, Blue Cheer, etc.), but also by stoner rock and actual psychedelic scene (Kyuss, Sleep, Nebula, Earthless, Orange Goblin, etc.) they decided to create a band to play like these masters.
After the release of their first EP Magic Carpet Ride, the former bassman left his place to Ronan Grall, spiritual Guru from the French Doom band Huata. Then they toured in Spain, Portugal, France, having some great gigs with bands like Blues Pills, The Atomic Bitchwax, Prisma Circus, Cuzo, Fungus...
Brain Pyramid is a Heavy Bluesy Stoner Psychedelic Rock And Roll band. They play loud enough to make you feel like blown by a LSD dose. They are actually searching for lots of gigs to expend their experience and grow up to the sun.
 
Chasma Hideout will be released this October. Stay tuned on our pages for updates!

• acquistando uno dei nostri pacchetti anniversario, che comprendono quattro cd ed una maglietta a vostra scelta (disponibili per i primi cinquanta acquirenti)
• donando tramite la nostra pagina Bandcamp, che per il solo mese di maggio avrà tutti gli album al prezzo di 1 € (può sembrare supefluo, ma se ognuno di voi iscritti donasse almeno una volta l'anno avremmo di che finanziarci senza problemi)
• acquistando un qualsiasi prodotto del nostro merchandise, disponibile a prezzi modici sul nostro Bandcamp
Abbiamo molti progetti in cantiere, ma il vostro supporto è fondamentale per vederli realizzati e per permetterci di continuare a rendere la nostra musica disponibile per tutti. Ci risentiamo a giugno per sapere i risultati di questa campagna, nel mentre... stay psych!

P.S. Oh, e non dimenticate di tenere d'occhio la nostra pagina Facebook... concorso in arrivo!

EN  Cosmonauts! On May 22 our label will reach its second year of life.

Mindwarp is Out!


Cosmonauts! Mindwarp' selftitled debut EP is finally out! As usual, is available for full streaming and download (Name Your Price!) on our Bandcamp Page! Physical copies can be purchased at our Bigcartel!




"I'm a real sucker for short 'n spacey desert gems and this little EP is definitely one of them. It won't break any records but it is a warm and honest instrumental offering to massage your ears and mind. For fans of small and hidden sonic treasures around here in the likes of Brujas del Sol and Atomic Vulture."
Stonerobixxx

"Information is scant on this band and so to bring you any background is slightly difficult. That may actually be a good thing though as the music we have on offer here is alien and strange and sounds like it has come from another time. The 1970's to be precise and that is not a bad thing at all. This is a prime slice of psych rock that has more than enough eclecticism about it to avoid being derivative. It's also a mighty fine blast and one that should reverberate around your ears as it pummels through your speakers."
Echoes and Dust

"Filled with whiffs of older sounds and fuzz, Mindwarp keep it pretty fat-free while bringing in some bluesy stoner and desert vibes, and an occasional bit o’ funky in the bottom end that add some nutrition. Though more inclined to slowly burning one over the rubber, Mindwarp still manage to get off the couch."
Sunrise Ocean Bender

"Italy appears to be a breeding ground for psychedelic stoner bands. Instrumental psychonauts Mindwarp step up to the plate next to fellow countrymen Doctor Cyclops, Manthra Dei and Black Rainbows with their debut self-titled EP. With four tracks to convince you of their musical prowess, Mindwarp go for an all enveloping sound spectrum, from ambient and smooth to fingerlicking good riffing."
