This Week

This week, on Psychedelic Rock Chronicles, we dive into the mysterious and eerie world of H.P. Lovecraft II, the second album from the legendary U.S. psychedelic rock band, released in 1969. Known for their blend of cosmic themes and experimental sounds, this album marks a shift towards more psychedelic and otherworldly arrangements, setting the tone for the band’s unique place in the late-’60s psych scene. Recorded at I.D. Sound Studios in Los Angeles, the album captures the essence of the psychedelic era with haunting effects and dreamy instrumental landscapes. Standout tracks like “At the Mountains of Madness,” inspired by Lovecraft’s own chilling tale, and “Electrollentando,” take us on a journey into the unknown with deep, atmospheric textures. Though not a commercial hit upon release, H.P. Lovecraft II has since become a cult classic, revered for its innovative sound and the band’s creative exploration of space and time. Get ready to immerse yourself in the timeless mystery of this album, as we continue our exploration of 60s psychedelic rock on today’s episode of Psychedelic Rock Chronicles.
