Item Details
Licorice Roots return with their latest masterpiece, the most recent foray into their world of lush and literate psychedelic pop.The long-awaited third album, with over sixty-eight minutes of emotionally charged and musically stunning imagery, easily surpasses both of their previous cult-classic albums. Shades of Streamers was described by Andrew Grypa as “a cosmic trip through the world of Licorice Roots that swallows all misery whole.” Edward Moyse–the voice, hands, and spiritual leader of Licorice Roots–is known for his lyrical perfection, a universe of astonishingly vivid dreams, and the encapsulation of picturesque extravagance. Licorice Roots’ debut album was produced by Kramer (Danielson Familie, Daniel Johnston, Half Japanese) but this album is guided only by Moyse’s enigmatic mind. Filled with whimsical exuberance, he conjures a lush and swaggering mood where the fuzzy caterwauling guitar and swirling Mellotron seem almost reckless at moments. Previous albums have been heralded in Magnet’s ten-year anniversary issue as one of the Most Underrated Bands of the Last Ten Years, as well as reviewed in Melody Maker, Pop Culture Press, Exclaim,Time Out New York, NME, Ptolemaic Terrascope, Salt for Slugs, and CMJ.

“A formula for a heady and bittersweet sound, though it wouldn’t hold up for an entire album without songs that are both light enough and strong enough to support it.” – CMJ
