Anoint

Album Review: Ocrilim - Anointin' Pull out your flannels and light some incense, because Ocrilim's latest offering, "Anointin'," is taking us on a psychedelic journey through the cosmos. With a sound that can only be described as avant-garde meets prog-rock meets someone playing a theremin with their feet, this album is a true sonic experience. Lead singer and multi-instrumentalist, Mick "The Madman" Smith, weaves a tapestry of sound that is both ethereal and chaotic. The opening track, "Celestial Bliss," lulls you into a false sense of security before hitting you with a wave of distorted guitars and thunderous drums that will leave you questioning your own existence. The real standout on this album is the 20-minute opus, "Interstellar Odyssey." With its shifting time signatures and otherworldly vocals, it feels like you're hurtling through space at the speed of light, only to crash land on a distant planet filled with neon trees and talking squirrels. Overall, "Anointin'" is a mind-bending trip that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about music. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let Ocrilim take you on a journey to the far reaches of the galaxy. Just make sure you pack some snacks, because you might be gone for a while.
