2LP – Black Vinyl.

Mystic 100s , formally known as Milk Music are an underground psychedelic rock group from Washington State. The band first gained worldwide notoriety with their self-released debut Beyond Living in 2010, and since then have enjoyed critical acclaim and a steady cult following, despite being notoriously hard to find information about, and seldom seen performing live since 2013. The current line up is a sextet featuring Alex Coxen (guitar vocals), Dave Harris (guitar), Charles Waring (bass), Abby Dahlquist (piano/synthesizer), Joe Rutter & Travis Coster (percussion)

On a Micro Diet (Listening House) is the bands first new release since the dark witted and heavy lidded eco blues* of 2017s MYSTIC-100S (Dom America)

At 75 minutes, Micro Diet is a lofty collection of music. Inspired by frequent LSD use, the record features a wide range of musical styles that might all fit under the umbrella terms of groovy and out there , constantly shifting between stretches of coherent rhythmic groove and structural collapse.

Here are some descriptive review excerpts of from an essay* on the album:

The record feels very live and alive.
Sounds like Crazy Horse covering Popul Vuh.
Where the band jams remains the land of the sunset.
The exuberant freedom expressed by the band whether its a ten minute, two chord ramble tamble, or laying into feedback and chimes like its a sauna, it inspires pride and courage. It takes guts to survive in the wilderness of the American imagination and by my reckon, Mystic 100s must talk to the birds,like Saint Francis did, to remain so deeply in the dew.
Every 3-5 years Milk Music has sounded Mystical and now the Mystics sound magical.

(Anthony Boruch-Comstock, Mystic Manifesto, Jan 23)
