The Jim Mitchells - Love Hypnotic Limited Vinyl LP

RIYL: Elephant 6 Collective, Brian Jonestown Massacre

Label: Third Eye Stimuli

Following up on their groovy Planet Absorbed EP from 2016, Sydney 5-piece psych pop outfit The Jim Mitchells now have a debut full-length to share with the world. They’ve taken a few ingredients from various eras of psychedelia on Love Hypnotic, combining the lofi garage aesthetic of psych’s first wave in the late 60s, the rich melodic sheen of the mid 80s Paisley Underground era and the experimental nature of the Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Dandy Warhols and Elephant 6 Collective’s peak in the 90s. My favorite of the two available tracks is Easy Love, gliding along a sublime organ tone and jangly guitar hook. Great stuff. Can’t wait to hear the rest!

Bear in mind that these beautiful slabs will be shipping from Australia, so all ye yankees and limeys prepare your wallets for a trifle more bruising.

This is one of those super-tricky calls. The two tracks are sweet. If this was shipping out of Europe or even Japan I would have already pulled the trigger. Or if it was as amazing as the Pansies record.Its only 8 tracks - Is it a mini-lp really? Is someone going to import and distribute it in Europe??? Argh!!!!

I'm onboard with your logic, ShaunCRogan. This is a "maybe buy" until I hear another track or two. Great paisley-psych sound, without being hokey.

If you dig this and the Pansies' Cascade of Colors, you might give The Shadowgraphs Venoumous Blossoms LP a listen. I wasn't wild about it at first, but it's really a sweet little gem of a record released early last year. It's also the first LP pressed (i believe) on the Golden Brown label out of Portland, which is really growing into a fine upstart label.

Yep. Am going to acquaint myself with the Shadowgraphs record now bro.

Liking the Shadowgraphs. If I still feel the same in the morning I will definitely purchase. Thanks for the heads up, bro. :o)
