about

Seeing things on Mars?

McDEAD continues an epic psychedelic journey into outer space, with this brief stop on Mars.

Vaguely reminiscent of 60's British psychedelia and some later experimental post-punks, but with the best of modern and ancient production well mangled into the mix. There is a light touch of mix gel via The Cure, maybe because McDead once had the same hairdresser as Robert Smith in North London...
a true story - Bob talked only about cricket - no music!

Perhaps you may feel some Julian Cope influencing; that's not so surprising as McDead shares some common sonic-archaeological interests (a longer story).

Listen very carefully through the retro vocal effects, analogue instruments, and soak up some subtle production depth. In places the electronica lightly touches down gently via a light and low gravity influence of the Chemical Brothers, Aphex Twin and the untouchable Ozzy genius - Mr. Bill... maybe just a dark side shadow that aims for the moon and hits the Mars?

Far out - enjoy the trip!

I saw your face on Mars
Was it something else?

If you had a choice or
your time again?

Your time again
Your time again

I saw your face on Mars
I saw your face on Mars
