They are like Strawberry Alarm Clock but with a much more serious, polished and professional sound, still totally freaky though! I had this record for a long time, I sold it for a very good price.

I've been digging them for years. Nothing's Boy is creepy as fuck. Their live album is a masterpiece of the era, give them a try. My God, they are JUST getting some mention now?

Listening now I'm just lacking a good strobe candle And some sandlewood incense. Thanks for resurrecting a great album! Listening now I’m just lacking a good strobe candle

They made a series of ads for Ban Roll-On using essentially the same riff in a different key.

I second the recommendation of their "Live May 11, 1968". It is WAY more intense than this video, or their two studio records. Several of their songs are based on Lovecraft's fiction, too. I also second the rec on Nothing's Boy. It must be my favorite of their studio tracks, because it's the only one I have ripped from my dad's LPs.
