Product Description

After working with bands from Argentina, Germany and Canada, the fourth release on Drone Rock Records comes from a band a lot nearer to home…Cambridge’s Psychic Lemon. The band have already self-released their self-titled debut both digitally and on CD and it is with great pleasure that they have chose Drone Rock Records to release it on vinyl. The album has already garnered great reviews with online music bible, Echoes and Dust, hailing it as “…an album fit for the title of most stupendous psych release so far this year”. Online Psych blog, Days Of Purple and Orange wrote “every now and then a ‘small’ band will contact me whose material just blows me away…Psychic Lemon are one of those” and the guys over at Arctic Drones enthused “how much musical bliss they bring is hard to describe”

The album has also grabbed the ear of Tom Robinson over at BBC6Music who has played the track “Dilator” on his show.

Check out the video below for the track “Death Cult Blues” taken from the album and you will see for yourselves why the record has received so much praise.

Psychic Lemon

Psychic Lemon make dark psych for Austerity Britain. They are the essence of a DIY band in 2024: recording, engineering, producing and mastering their music themselves. The band’s influences are broad, but choice artists include Goat and Hawkwind.

They live in Cambridge, the most unequal city in the UK. The band used to play in a shed in the garden of a council house, but have since moved up the property ladder to an industrial estate on the outskirts of town.

Unable to play during lockdown, the band put together their favourite unreleased tracks and made them available to download for free. This compilation eventually ran to four hours across six albums, with each album receiving a physical release on Weird Beard Records.

Live, Psychic Lemon have played gigs all over the UK, including headlining Norwich Psych Fest and playing alongside bands such as helicon, GNOD and Carlton Melton. In Europe, they’ve gigged in Germany, Belgium and The Netherlands.

They have released vinyl albums on Drone Rock Records (UK) and Tonzonen Records (DE).
