Electric Grapefruit

Set the controls for the heart of the sun and take a cosmic cruise through the psychedelic jungle. Five acid rock warriors armed with a mind-bending arsenal of fuzz-guitar, wah and primal beats, pushing familiar sounds into unchartered territories and new dimensions. "Super-group" (featuring members of The Prehistorics, The Ravens, The Helpful Kitchen Gods, and The Men from U.N.C.L.E.) Electric Grapefruit have arrived. They are the sound of NOW.

Drop the brown acid and take the trip…
