Notes

About The Holy Mushroom
The ecstatic and orgiastic, visionary and boundary-dissolving experiences, the central mysteries of the mushroom religion, where the very factors in the human situation acting to keep our ancestors human. The commonality of feeling generated by the mushroom held the community together. "The Divine, Inspiring Power Of The Mushroom Spoke Through The Bards And Singers".
The Indwelling spirit of the mushroom moved the hand that carved bone and painted stone. Such things were a commonplace of the Edenic world of the Goddess. Life was lived not as we have chosen to imagine it, on the edge of mute bestiality, but rather, close to a dimension of spontaneous magical and linguitic expression that now shines only briefly in each of us at the pinnacle of experimental intoxication but that then was the empowered and enveloping reality: The Presence Of The Great Goddess.

(Terence Mc Kenna / Flesh of the Gods)

Rated 2/5
Review by kalex Nov 19, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
A very mixed compilation. Given the time it was released, it contains a lot of rather dark and spooky tracks that were quite out of the ordinary for goa trance compilations. About half of the compilation is in that style. It may be a personal matter if one likes this (and for me, there's too much of Tim Schuldt's dark influence here).

But whats really creepy is the post production of the compilation - if there was any. First, the volume of the individual tracks varies a lot - CD2 is significantly louder on the first 5 tracks for example. And second, the sound quality of some of the tracks simply sucks big time (for example, the otherwise beautiful MoS track is way too heavy on the bass, which could've been easily fixed with some decent post production/mastering).
