French psychedelic force THE PSYCHOTIC MONKS, formed in 2015,
unleash their new, second longplayer PRIVATE MEANING FIRST this
Friday, 27th November.

The LP was recorded in near-total isolation in the French countryside
where they deliberately created a claustrophobic environment, resulting
in a tense atmosphere that can be heard throughout the album.

Early October they shared the pitch-black, storming lead-single Closure.

Today the band dropped another piece, titled ISOLATION, clearly made to have a brain-breaking impact. No birds and bees fairy tales for these far-out bohemians. Expect a sort of ominous Texas Chainsaw Massacre jam. A Doomsday trip moving like a nasty serpent on its destructive way. A hypnotizing Krautrock trash and slash discharge going forth and back. You have been warned.

Shiver here…

.
This live version is pretty dazzling too…

And here the eye-catching short film for crushing lead-single CLOSER…
