Accolades for Space is Dark... It is so Endless
This is the rerelease of a 6 track acoustic EP that resulted in a full length Fooz recording. This album compiles all of their studio work with the original mixes from their self-titled debut plus 3 additional unreleased songs.
Fooz, a Spanish band, has arrived playing music in the same spirit of seamlessly blending influences from the past with a modern sound quality and healthy dose of heaviness. While Fooz sounds like no one else precisely, you constantly get the feeling this is a lost treasure from any decade of music you care to name since the 60s. Their named influences are Hawkind, Captain Beefheart, Blue Cheer and Pink Floyd, but they don't truly sound like any of those bands nor a clumsy blend or attempt at those styles. Instead, Fooz has a timeless quality as well as a ton of great songs that offer convincing melodies, adventurous yet focused arrangements and spirited playing. There are tendencies to jam a little as well as softer moments.
