Flamingods, Metronome Nottingham, Nottingham - 22nd March 2024
Great musicianship and general great time had by all.
After being in touch with the so called modern Psych(e) that is being produced today and feeling that some of it is musicially lacking, or a bit grainy and distorted round the edges it is refreshing to see a band of such musical dedication and abilty. There was much swapping and changing instruments, a great well paced performance starting off with the poppier more user friendly numbers on their latest album 'Levitation' and moving onto the more modal and psychedelic longer tracks such as 'Mantra East' and ending with the ever increasing portentious building tune 'Hyperborea'.
The band were in great spirits and we certainly had a good dance although they could have played for much longer. I would hope to see them grow in popularity in Nottingham as compared to the hubris that is around today they deserve to sell out such a pleasant state of the art venue.
For those who like their Psych(e) with ethnic sounds, hypnotic drones and a fusion of interesting instruments with driving motorik beats and pop sensibilities. We met them breifly at the end to complement them on such a good performance. If you can catch them on tour do not miss it.
