MANTHRA DEI: 70s-based Progressive/Psychedelic Rock from Italy out on Acid Cosmonaut Records



More than a band, MANTHRA DEI are a bunch of friends in love with lysergic deserts and forged by nights spent listening cassettes of teenage idols. Spontaneous, raw and mind-tripped tunes get pierced together by their bipolar personalities and become straight as headbanging on a kick-ass riff.

Michele, Paolo and Brano started back in 2009 as an instrumental power-trio that brought them to self-produce an EP with two log trips for almost 40 minutes of improvisations. Soon after, Maestro Paolo T. (yes, a real Maestro) joined them to start a long list of live-shows with Karma to Burn, Yawning Man, Vibravoid among many others up to a memorable Pietrasonica Festival in 2011.

After that the band decided to fix their jams into an album and consequently to get closed in a rehearsal room for almost two years … at least up to 2013, when Nasoni Rec – Colour Haze, Machine, Siena Root anyone? – decided to cast on vinyl their recordings. CD edition was taken in charge by a young Italian label, Acid Cosmonauts, that spread the world with a limited edition of 300 copies of their first full-length.

1.Stone Face – a majestic trip into space/psych/prog areas
2.Xolotl – heavy one: heavy riffing and head banging for the masses
3.Legendary Lamb – yes, after all we are a stoner band and this is supposed to sound like a stoner song
4.Urjammer – special intermezzo to relax you from cardiac problems
5.Blue Phantom – the suite: stoner/psych/prog/blues/ethnic/acid/doom/kraut/heavy mixed together without any rules. May the mindtrip begin!
6.Stone Face (Acoustic Reprise) – our special message of love & anguish for this cruel world



What to find on the album? Hawkwind, Causa Sui, Can, Kyuss, Earthless, Black Sabbath, Colour Haze, King Crimson, Motorpsycho, Popol Vuh, Sleep, Goblin, Hypnos69, Jethro Tull, Ozric Tentacles mashed-up with no criteria but with horns up against the sky!
