Intro

SpaceRock

Space rock refers to a new generation of alternative/indie bands that draw from psychedelic rock, ambient music, and -- more often than not -- experimental and avant-garde influences. Space rock is nearly always slow, hypnotic, and otherworldly; it typically favors lengthy, mind- bending sonic explorations over conventional song structures, and vocals sometimes play second fiddle to the shimmering instrumental textures.
