Occult Psychedelia



To cut a long story short, a cassette compilation came my way in the early 1990's featuring a selection of jaw-dropping late 60's psychedelia. Each track had an occult theme, and the tape appeared to have been released by
thee Temple Ov Psychic Youth. The quality of the recordings varied, but the content completely blew my mind. I recently decided to re-make the compilation, and tracked down higher quality versions of each song in order to create this collection of mp3's. Fans of classic psychedelia will certainly enjoy this one; and the arcane/occult nature of the tracks is a huge bonus.
Download it here.

  1. Aren't you getting a little confused? On birthdays you're supposed to receive presents, not give them. Thanks for your generosity. Hope your real ale hangover isn't too bad in the morning.

  3. I'd just like to echo penis drainer's comment.

    If only I'd had this on my recent field expedition I could have listened to it as I danced trouserless round stone circles shouting at crows.

    Thanks for this mister.

  4. Rob, Comus certainly qualify as Occult Psychedelia (as do a great many other artists) but they weren't on the original cassette I had (see description for details). That's why they're not included.

  9. Any chance this could be uploaded to another server since MegaUpload has gone belly up?

  11. 'penis drainer the master of urine' has a valid point, very subtle with subliminal undertones of aggression, obviously reflecting his tormented childhood collecting loose change off his mothers strip show floor.

    thanks for this killer album!
