Alpha Stone

The Profile

Alpha Stone is a British psychedelic/space‑rock project associated with Pete “Bassman” Bain (ex‑Spacemen 3, Spectrum), best known for the album Stereophonic Pop Art Music and a run of 1990s releases.

From the review: music built on long sequences of distorted guitars and keyboards, a lo‑fi aesthetic, with tracks like “Astro” and “Martian Interlude.” Connections to the Spacemen 3/Spiritualized/Spectrum orbit are noted.

Our single review of Alpha Stone zooms in on Stereophonic Pop Art Music, praising its psychedelic, space-bound trances and lo‑fi glare. Long, distorted guitar-and-keyboard sequences evoke Spacemen 3/Spectrum atmospheres. Highlights include the ten‑minute launch of Astro and the closing Martian Interlude.
