This instrumental trio has released one of the strongest collection of psychedelic rock I�ve heard in awhile. The three tracks are expansive, fluid songs that have the better qualities of jams without meandering aimlessly. The album sounds live, but the songs are layered with parts fading in and out of the mix. The best way of describing it is as organic. The song structures aren�t conventional, but nor are they on the fringes of rock. There�s just a natural flow to the progression. Guitarist Toby Bryant's playing alternates between a heavy style similar to Stinking Lizavetta or 35007 and effects-laden phrasings that are on par with the better parts of Pink Floyd. But it's drummer Mike Irwin and bassist Josh Rosenstein that make Delicious shine. The two lock together, playing as one. They�re about as solid a rhythm section as you can get.

I'd like to see Delicious and Pelican on the same bill.

Delicious are the best instrumental band. Always powerful, never repetitive, big drums, and big rhythm.
