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.

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

Tomorr will be released on 6/11/2020

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."

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!

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."

Upcoming Release: Manthra Dei


We're pretty excited to announce our next CD release, the homonymous album by Italian Heavy-Psych masters Manthra Dei! Coming this october, also on vinyl by Nasoni Records!
Here's the first track off the album, Stone Face, a majestic trip into space/psych/prog areas. Enjoy it!




BIO

More than a band, Manthra Dei are a bunch of friends in love with lysergic deserts and forged by nights spent listening cassettes of teenage idols. Spontaneous, raw and mind-tripped tunes get pierced together by their bipolar personalities and become straight as headbanging on a kick-ass riff.
Michele, Paolo and Brano started back in 2009 as an instrumental power-trio that brought them to self-produce an EP with two log trips for almost 40 minutes of improvisations. Soon after, Maestro Paolo T. (yes, a real Maestro) joined them to start a long list of live-shows with Karma to Burn, Yawning Man, Vibravoid among many others up to a memorable Pietrasonica Festival in 2011.
After that the band decided to fix their jams into an album and consequently to get closed in a rehearsal room for almost two years … at least up to 2013, when Nasoni Rec – Colour Haze, Machine, Siena Root anyone? – decided to cast on vinyl their recordings. CD edition was taken in charge by a young Italian label, Acid Cosmonauts, that spread the world with a limited edition of 300 copies of their first full-length.
What to find in the album? Hawkwind, Causa Sui, Can, Kyuss, Earthless, Black Sabbath, Colour Haze, King Crimson, Motorpsycho, Popol Vuh, Sleep, Goblin, Hypnos69, Jethro Tull, Ozric Tentacles mashed-up with no criteria but with horns up against the sky.
Definitely not a stoner album, but I bet anybody to give a definition of this shit!
