Philadelphia's
acid rockers ECSTATIC VISION present their butt-kicking and exhilarating new
video for "Shut Up And Drive" today. The band is touring Europe right now to present their new studio album 'For
The Masses' released this fall on Heavy Psych Sounds.
ECSTATIC VISION have tapped into something that expands heavy rock's vocabulary and moves into a far-out sonic galaxy where there is music in the spheres, but the spheres vibrate on previously untold frequencies. 'For the Masses' is Ecstatic Vision at its most spacey, most tripped-out, most avant-garde, and most rock and roll, somehow all at once.
Rock'n'roll never dies! "Shut Up And Drive" at this location
Frontman Doug Sabolik says: "We were toying with the idea of a more digestible record but at the end of the day we had to keep it real and the result was our most psychedelic, head-trip style record to date. This record mixes expansions of the elements we have touched on in the past and with the help of producer Tim Green (Melvins, Earthless) we have delivered a streamlined, clear version of our unique blend of Neanderthal, Catatonic, Semi-Articulate, Cro-Magnon Rock."

New album "For The Masses" Out now on Heavy Psych Sounds - ORDER
After bursting onto the scene with their 2015
tribal-psychedelic LP, Sonic Praise, touring the USA with Yob and Uncle Acid
& The Deadbeats, crushing Roadburn, then quickly releasing a
for-heads-only, noisy, psychedelic-garage record to weed out the weak (Raw Rock
Fury), ECSTATIC VISION have pulled themselves out of the muck to deliver their
finest album to date. Recorded in Philadelphia
at Retro City Studios with Joe Boldizar and mixed/mastered by Tim Green
(Earthless, The Melvins) at Louder Studios in Grass Valley, CA,
Ecstatic Vision's recent fuzzed-out sound has been sculpted it into a HI/FI
psychedelic wonderland. This album is the closest the band has gotten to
achieving the energy of their untouchable live shows on tape. EV took a simpler
approach on the art this time, as if Tangerine Dream jammed with Lemmy and the
Asheton Brothers and decided to play some World Music and Free Jazz in 1971.
ECSTATIC VISION is Doug Sabolik - guitar, organ, vocals Michael Field Connor - bass Kevin Nickles - saxophone, flute, guitar Ricky Kulp - drums
