LINKS [AB-OC-16] URDOG - Eyelid Of Moon CD only $11 USA; $15 World 1. Nepenthe 2. Robur the Conqueror 3. Ani Nie Ma [MP3] 4. Paths of the Meridians 5. Eyelid of Moon Eyelid Of Moon is a follow-up to Urdog's 2004 Secret Eye debut, Garden of Bones. On Eyelid of Moon, Urdog follow their influences down the rabbit hole to create a pulsating mix of kommische-prog-psych-drone INSANITY. Jeff Knoch's Farfisa shifts from King Crimson to Alice Coltrane, to Amon Duul II, and back while Dave Lifreiri lays down the heavy acid guitar licks. We hear more of drummer Erin Rosenthal's ethereal voice this time out in addition to her signature tribal beats. Urdog has toured throughout the US and Europe sharing the stage with acts such as Circle, Lungfish, Six Organs Of Admittance, Sunn O))), Boris, Trad Gras och Stenar, Magic Markers and Black Forest/Black Sea.

Ice On Water (live in Geneva, Switzerland) 2005 re-issue bonus track Garden Of Bones was Urdog's 2004 debut for Secret Eye. It went quickly out-of-print, but now we have re-pressed it with an additional live track. Tight and textural psych rock by three of Providence's finest. Driving, tribal drumming, fuzzed-out Farfisa, and searing guitar licks. Atmospheric yet rocking, this is music to which you can shake your booty while docking starships... WITH YOUR MIND!! REVIEWS "Creepy space psych hasn't sounded this cool in a long time. Urdog is simply the most satisfying prog/psych group to emerge from our beloved US of A in many moons, maintaining a palpable energy, memorable hooks and a mythical lunacy as they conjure a new beast whose howl all dead souls should heed, and maybe a few living ones, too." - Lee Jackson in Foxy Digitalis "Corrosive caustic stumbling grooves meet tribal folk song circles. A mix of male and female voices and a mystically stunned vibe that makes it difficult to believe that passage of this are not some lost krautrock chapter. Ethereal in places, but earthly, heavy and sensual as well. Organic and artificial elements merge into a fluid flowing psychedelic whole. Taking the pulse of the universe with a tea kettle and a tambourine." George Parsons, Dream Magazine "(Urdog) set some high expectations with "Ice On Water," a nine-minute epic that immediately brings to mind Popol Vuh's cosmic ragas... the space-bound song may have precedent, but the execution is terrific and the band remain equal to the task of achieving hypnotic repetition while keeping things interesting throughout." - Mason Jones, reviewing Garden Of Bones for Dusted Magazine
