(2022) The Legendary Pink Dots - The Maria Dimension (Complete Recordings)
Review:
The Legendary Pink Dots classic psychedelic masterwork from 1991 is released now with all the bonus tracks previously available on the extremely limited 5LP box set from 2015. In addition to the original album, remastered by Edward Ka-Spel, two additional CDs of material from the same recordings sessions are presented here. For the uninitiated, the Legendary Pink Dots create psychedelic songs that blend religion science and mythology into their own dense claustrophobic world. As a band that has lived most of its life pitched on the edge of obscurity they have managed to assemble one of the most fiercely independent visions of music this side of Hawkwind. The Maria Dimension, which came out in 1991 on Play It Again Sam (PIAS), is as life altering a record as they come. Part cerebral science fiction part horror story, punctuated with a narcotic beauty, the record rotates like some rogue satellite spinning towards uncharted worlds. It’s a record with a pulsing femoral tension that sucks you into its murky vortex. — legendarypinkdots.org
