This is a review request,i have had a few people ask me "why haven't you reviewed this" and i don't really know why,i just can't review everything but here it is now.Better late than never,Earthless - Live At Roadburn.I doubt if there is many readers of this blog (if any) that have not heard Earthless.They are modern day Acid Rock Psychedelic Powerhouse of a band that can jam out a song while looking like its no effort at all.This 2 CD set is 90 minutes plus of the band playing live at Roadburn last year and its a monster.The only way this could be better is if it was a DVD so you watch their magical brain splitting action in surround sound.Now that would be something.Disc one starts off with "Blue" and the mind bending jamming doesn't let up from that moment till the end of Disc 2.The guitar work of Isaiah Mitchell is breathtaking as is Mike Eginton's throbbing bass lines,they are a modern day Cream or Hendrix Experience but in a more modern Fuzz Rock Tradition.The Disc 2 portion is the part that gets repeated spins in my house,'From The Ages/Godspeed' and 'Sonic Prayer' is 35 minutes of pure Psychedelic ear candy.While its more of the same sound and vibe as the first disc,disc 2 seems even more effortless as the music flows with such ease.Its as if these guys could play this music in their sleep.Special mention must go out to the drummer too which is so dynamic and is done with so much feeling and power but without sounding overdone.This is one of those CD's made to played loud while kicking back with a few brews and joint in hand.The perfect soundtrack to any smoking/drinking session,so good that it is real easy to sit through the two disc's.Time flies while listening to this but i am guessing you have to be into long spaced out jamming to fully appreciate it.Some people might find it a bit much to listen to in one session but i personally find it inspirational.9.5/10
