Astral Blackout

Carsten Pieper While the first track of this fine HEAVY MOON release for all my moneys worth reminds me of the dark side of above mentioned celestial body, after that my main reference point would be Ashra's Blackout album or more general Berliner Schule with a healthy dose of electric guitar.

A very solid offering for fans of spaced out instrumental rock! Favorite track: Lunar Boogaloo.

Another belter and a new cover too, well worth the wait, an absolute stonker to add to his collection. If you're new to HM this is a perfect entry to his music and the back catalogue will just fill you with joy.
Be smiley.

New Dark Age 06:40
We shall fight in the fields, and in the streets We shall never surrender For if we fail then the whole world Will sink into the abyss of a new dark age One day this nation will rise up We shall fight in the fields, and in the streets One day this nation will rise up By any means necessary Love's the only weapon? Bullshit! Martin Luther King died with Love Kennedy died talking about something he couldn't understand Some generalized Love, he never even backed it up He was shot down! Bullshit! Love isn't the only weapon with which I got to fight I've got a whole lotta weapons to fight If we fail then the whole world Will sink into the abyss of a new dark age

[...] Rock Steady it's good to hear you in my radio and I'm glad everything's alright on your end, man. I don't what you've been goin' through the last year or so, boy, but it's been forever and a day since I've heard you in my radio. But boy you put a big ol' smile on my face ain't no two ways about that. Rock Steady [...] in the Southwest on the border with a wave right back.

about

Heavy Moon has returned from its sojourn on the astral plane to bring you dire warnings hidden within the notes of the pentatonic blues scale.

One of The Third Eye blog's "Best Psychedelic Rock Albums of July 2023"

“I keep hearing about all those UFOs and wonder if the aliens have arrived yet. If they have, the Canadian multi-instrumentalist Jakob Rehlinger has probably already made contact. His project HEAVY MOON blends prog and space rock in a highly satisfying way on Astral Blackout, with six tracks of excellent instrumental jams. The sounds are psychedelic, bluesy, and extraterrestrial. If you have a sweet tooth for space rock, this album is for you.”
