My third recording of Milwaukee psych rock legends Vocokesh is now ready to be shared. Richard Franecki and his trio came to MKeUltra for an evening filled with experimental avantgarde music and the improvising psych rockers of Vocokesh fit perfectly with the other bands on the bill.
Interestingly, their first song of the set was a radical and extensive reworking of the title track from Pink Floyd's second album, something that barely registered with me at the show.
Purchase their most recent album here.
