Italian psychedelic and acid rock stalwarts GIÖBIA share a heavy new track taken from their forthcoming sixth album "Acid Disorted" on Heavy Psych Sounds. Immerse yourself into the lysergic haze of "The Sweetest Nightmare" via The Sleeping Shaman website!

GIÖBIA has been building sonic bridges between the cosmos and what we can call reality for a decade now, and this new album cements their reputation as one of Europe's most bedazzling purveyors of psychedelia. About the song, the band comments: "The Sweetest Nightmare' is the call to salvation of those who have long found relief in their own damnation, the painful and at the same time sweet and almost familiar condemnation in which to cradle themselves. With doom sounds contaminated by ethereal atmospheres, this song is the invocation of those who look into oblivion to find themselves, touching the bottom to the point of being able to go back up."

On its sixth album "Acid Disorder", the otherwordly foursome delivers eight mind-altering and fluid-sounding tracks, with a special focus on rich atmospheres and textures. The eclecticism of the songs and their exotic flavor is rendered by the use of certain ethnic instruments - we can clearly recognize sitar and saz binding in an intriguing dance with vintage organs and synthesizers. Such a fascinating mixture gives the band its own hallmark that makes it unique and recognizable among thousands.

"Acid Disorder" easily engages even the most demanding listener. We can hear certain krautrock influences à la Amon Düül and Ash Ra Tempel, leading us to float in the cosmos towards new unexplored dimensions and reconfirm the purely space-rock taste of the band and its inclination for sci-fi soundtracks charm and mystery. GIÖBIA invite us to enter their realm, that hidden place in the depths of their mind where anything can happen. Once again we abandon ourselves to altered states of consciousness, enchanted by the lysergic side of music that is both familiar and new. 

"Acid Disorder"  will be available on April 28th in various vinyl formats, CD and digital through Heavy Psych Sounds. ► Listen to first single "Consciousness Equals Energy"!
