“As
the group enters it's ninth year, Glitter Wizard are set to release
their most ambitious album yet. Hollow Earth Tour is a concept album
of sorts; chock-full of reptilian overlords, underwater fascists, and
inner-earth explorers. This band of California rifflords pillage the
best of vintage hard rock while keeping their laser eyes on the
future, creating a unique brand of oddball psychedelia. Their onstage
performance is a glammed-up force to be reckoned with and they've
been taking their act on the road from the West Coast all the way to
Europe.

That's
all the information you require to listen to the excellent new album
from Glitter Wizard – Hollow Earth Tour. It's a blistering ride of
classic hard rock riffs with at touch of Psychedelic Stoner Rock
madness thrown in for good measure.
It's
definitely their craziest release to date but also perhaps their
finest album to date. The album has quite a schizophrenic feel which
has appeared on other Glitter Wizard releases. Though Hollow Earth
Tour is where the band make an almighty leap for greatness and pull
it off with true conviction.
Standout
tracks have to be: The Smokey God, The Hunter, Scales and Death Of
Atlantis.
The
album is superbly produced from start to finish as Glitter Wizard
include a ton of different noises to impress you with. It may take
you a few listens to fully understand it all as the band create a
progressive mind-fuck of different ideas that all have a delicious
wicked edge.
Now
you can enjoy Hollow Earth Tour in all it's glory. As the cool folks
at Heavy Psych Sounds and Purple Sage PR have allowed me to stream
the album before it's official release this Friday.
So
sit back and enjoy Hollow Earth Tour. It's time to take a trip and
believe me when I say it's glorious!!!
