Nashville psych wunderkinds The Paperhead recorded and released their psychedelic 2011 self-titled debut LP nugget on Trouble In Mind Records before all three 18 year old band members left for college. It's a layered and orchestrated psych LP full of sitar and farfisa and channels their Syd Barrett and post LSD Beatles influences on their sleeves. The band followed up the LP with a 7" single last year, also from TIM , that furthers the swirly eastern groovy influence in the vein of White Fence and Spacemen 3 that clearly showcases the improvement/growth of their [...]

No introduction needed really. Here are my top 10 favorite 7-inch records for 2012. Hope you like 'em too. 1. The Intelligence - (They Found Me In The Back Of) The Galaxy ( In the Red ) First time I heard this song my jaw dropped. It was at the Crocodile in Seattle and Lars introduced as an old song. At first I believed him, thinking it must have been on some obscure split 7-inch that came out in Moldova. Why did Finburg [...]

Day One was fun. Day Two, however, was met with a splitting sinus headache and stories of crowded photo pits with iPhones and friends of the friends of the bands that got in as "Press". Such is the festival atmosphere. It is like an insurance conference where normal human beings sometimes get a little nuts. Regardless, we had a punch list and we were going to punch it. Head past the break for a few notes and plenty of pics. Nathan: I [...]

Psych Fest is going down this weekend over on the East Side of town, and I wanted to give you a few bands I think you should check out. The first band I've got for you is Nashville's The Paperhead . After releasing a wonderful self-titled record last year, they've got a new 73 on Trouble in Mind Records this year; this new jam displays their blossoming maturity in regards to their songwriting. You will find that it's a lot less psychedelic than the last effort, [...]

Not that we had a winter this year on the East Coast, but Spring is in full bloom here in Brooklyn. Post-bloom actually, which is a good thing for you allergy sufferers. And so thaws my blog which has been on deep freeze since February. So here we are with this year's Spring Fever mix and I think it turned out pretty good! Lots of great new sounds, covering a lot of sonic territory (well, within a certain pale milieu, let's face it). Anyway, here you go, do enjoy. DOWNLOAD SPRING FEVER 2012 [...]

Nashville psych-rock outfit The Paperhead—formerly known as The Looking Glass—released their first record in 2010 as a 100-run casette on hometown label Infinity Cat. That long sold-out release showcased three 18 year-olds tapping into a space time-warp of vintage psychedelia, utilizing the sort of fuzz, tone, and heavy LSD-inspired exploratory jams that were first born in the late 1960s. The band's sound has quickly earned them a devoted following since then with vinyl releases on the UK's Ample Play and Chicago's Trouble In Mind. Not only are the members' musical chops undeniable, but their playful mix of instrumentation is impossible [...]

The Paperhead illustrates a shrewd ability to place mature craftsmanship into their own unorthodox style.
