Roads to Space Travel

Before, Before Now

DeSoto

Bringing sub-Kraut-rock to kids who have no clue about Kraut-rock (American or otherwise), Roads to Space Travel presents two songs in the mode of Can-via-the Fall-via-the Monorchid, with a vocalist who bears a strong semblance to Peter Gabriel in his Genesis days, to boot. A bit “mathy,” for sure, the grooves contained therein are locked enough to produce a mildly hallucinatory effect, but stretch this out ten more minutes and they may be on to something even more delicious. Forgive them, but these guys are American, you know.
