The Pink Snowflakes: Life in Exile

THE PINK SNOWFLAKES: LIFE IN EXILE...FINALLY RELEASE TRACKS for their latest
EXILED to the PLANET out digitally sept. 9th

Portland Oregon's Pink Snowflakes release their 11 tracks of experimental psychedelic rock after a long winded delay. Daze, ..weeks, years! It all seemed like it was bound to nail the coffin shut. It all sounded like an eternity. The Pink Snowflakes sharpened their teeth and dug their claws in the studio, maybe went a little wild, a little bat shit. A bit compulsive. The followup to Sun Chasing is going to leave you spell bound.
“EXILED to the PLANET” is a much darker twisted progressive psychedelic offering up of quasi religious mantras, echoes, fuzz, sirens, growls, obvious spaced out jams in a tighter, more organic feeling album. The songs angular nouveau and kraut rock like grooves take you on a mind trip through the fertile imagination of Andrew Rossi's cosmic scenario. Ancient civilizations gone terribly wrong and buried only to be discovered by their own race of time traveled scientists wondering what the hell happened and how they can change it all. Its a bold statement. Its an odd album. Its equally soothing, melodic, exploratory and heavy in its floydish undertones, instrumental pieces and echoes-like screams and screaches.
“EXILED to the PLANET” could be conceptual in its varied abstract representations of songwriting and what a semi-known psych rock band from the west coast can do when they want to make a crazy rock album..rock!
