 The fact that the album is perfectly split in half attests to this climate of separation.

 I have all the respect for Spiritualized, but they simply can’t hold a candle to the Astronauts.

Recurring is the final Spacemen 3 album, released amid personal and creative separations between Peter Kember and Jason Pierce. The album is distinctly split, with each half reflecting their individual styles and influences. It captures the early 90s acid house and psychedelic scene while illustrating the band's decline. Despite the split, the reviewer appreciates the album though laments the lack of a follow-up. Dive into Spacemen 3’s 'Recurring'—experience the thrilling final chapter of a psychedelic legend!

 A record that is not essential, meaning you can tell that here we are not yet at the level of the following two records, but it is an excellent start to the career of a band that surely deserved more success than unfortunately was granted to them.

 Rollercoaster is a guitar-driven ride where blues meets space rock with raga influences, a true hypnotic trip just like the version by the 13th Floor Elevators.

Spacemen 3’s debut album, Sound Of Confusion, showcases the early psychedelic and blues influences that shaped their music. With covers paying homage to the Stooges and 13th Floor Elevators, the record mixes hypnotic guitar riffs and minimal compositions. While not yet reaching the heights of their future work, it remains a strong and promising start. The review highlights the band’s raw passion and the drug-influenced aesthetic that would define their sound. Dive into Spacemen 3’s hypnotic debut and discover the roots of a psychedelic rock icon.
