Number 8 Wire recopila 16 artifactos de psicodelia bizarra grabados entre 1967-1969 por oscuros grupos garageros de Nueva Zelanda, la mayoría de los cuales eran desconocidos más allá de sus ciudades. Las 16 canciones de éste disco son una muestra de la avalancha de nuevos grupos maravillosos que aparecieron en la época dorada de finales de los sesentas, y que crearon el sonido psicódelico que caracteríza a ese periodo musical. Fantástico recopilatorio que incluye grupos mucho más interesantes que la mayoría de grupos que alcanzaron la fama en esa época.
ENGLISH:
Number 8 Wire collects 16 of the most bizarrely psychedelic artifacts of the 1967-1969 era by obscure New Zealand garage bands, most of which were barely even known past their hometowns, let alone stateside. The 16 acts here were just a fraction of the avalanche of new bands that sprouted up worldwide during the late '60s, and like a lot of forgotten sounds from the early days of psychedelia, these low-budget productions are endlessly interesting, fantastical, and more sonically exploratory than much of what rose to mass popularity in their time.
