Backwards, The
Eerie Thoughts Collection Pt. 3
The Backwards are one of the best kept secrets of the Italian underground. A true revelation that came out of the psychedelic scene in the late Eighties when the interest in the neo-Sixties movement was already decreasing and the media attention was turning elsewhere. The album is a kaleidoscope of colours, a maze where to get lost between acid ballads, lysergic acceleration, evocative acoustic fragments, catchy pop songs, melancholy numbers that few moments later descend into psychedelic rock songs. It's pure magic. Without doubt we can define it as one of the best Sixties-oriented albums released in Europe in the late 80's/early 90's!
