To say The Poppy Seeds are bold is an understatement. First of all, they cover The Stooges classic "Little doll" on track one, side one.and they do it well. Althoughtheir name might have you guessing this lp is full of flower power, puffy/pasley dress shirt vibes, they are actually far more aggro in their psychedelic approach. The whole album is drenched in fuzz, feed back and wah-wah. It has a heaviness to it, but it's not industrial. It sits right in that sweet spot between the repetitive rock and the hard rock place that bands like Loop and Spacemen 3 do. I'm finding hard to imagine labels like Cardinal Fuzz, Fuzz Club or Levitation not wanting to jump on this before someone else does. If hard-edged modern psychedelic space rock is your jam, drop the bread in the toaster 'cause it's time for breakfast. "Down In The Flowers" is the most important meal of the day.-Lance Barresi (Permanent Records) Colored vinyl.
