"Die Mindblowing-Sixties-Garage-Fuzz Maniacs! Neben der Mandra Gora Lightshow Society ohne Frage eine der Swamp Room Hausbands. Ein Original und wohl eine der dienstältesten Sixties-Punk-Bands. Sie waren zusammen unterwegs mit Dead Moon und die Legenden um diese Maniacs aus dem tiefsten St. Pauli-Rotlichtmillieu sind unerschöpflich. Und sie werden dabei immer besser. Sägende, acidtriefende Fuzzgitarren, Harp und dem einmaligen Painted Air-Sound zwischen Stooges & The Acid Testament Psychedelia. Frontmann & Acidtestamentverwalter MARTIN BRUJAH hat seine Band komplett erneuert und kommt mit einem neuen, noch wilderem & more fuzzloaded Line Up von Painted Air, to blow you mind!" (W.Kucharzik)
From Hamburg, Germany, The Painted Air play psychedelic garage-pop that I swear you would believe was recorded in the 1960's if you didn't know better. "Take A Drive" and "Money, Sex & Faith" are the power psych-rock tunes of the set with raw, angry vocals and ever so scrumptious psych guitars. Just dig those yeah-yeah-yeah background singers on "Take A Drive". "Dark Side" and "Evening Breeze" are the more mellow soulful tunes, though a psychedelic undercurrent lurks at all times. The songwriting is top notch on all four of these songs and there's little question these guys could have cranked out hits in the 60's. Absolutely outstanding and a must have for the retro crowd. And of course it comes on the high quality 10 gazillion gram thick as a brick vinyl that Swamp Room is known for, with it's beautiful colored artwork.
daredevil.de (june03): Sixties-Garage-Punk at it..s best....that was the first thing going through my head, when I..ve put on this 7". I always was a big Stooges fan, so I totally freaked out on the songs and i was dancing through my apartment like wild and my girlfriend asked me: "Who are these guys?" I said : "Painted Air!" and my girlfriend said: "I understand!" and the next moment we were dancing together. So if you wanna have something really special on your record shelf...you should better order this 7". For all fans of Stooges and all the other Acid heads out there. FANTASTIC.
ipunkrock.com : Contiene 5 canciones repartidas en dos caras diferenciadas en Psych y Fuzz según la carpeta y Raw y Psychotic según la etiqueta del vinilo. es una edición limitada de 300 copias. El line up de cada cara es distinto. Comenzamos por la "Raw side". El primer tema en aparecer a escena es "Missed your plane". Un tema desgarrador. Demasiado agresivo y con pocos tintes garageros para mi gusto. Tras éste, "Red room", con un sonido muy parecido al anterior. La cara finaliza con "Nothing can bring me down", un poco más acelerada que las anteriores, asà que imaginad. Ni los Misfits, oiga!! Pasamos de cara y ya nos encontramos los primeros sonidos garageros con "Velvet illusions", donde ya aparecen en escena los teclados y algún sonido psicodélico. El disco, finaliza con "The Fairy", que lejos de limpiar la vajilla, es un tema tétrico, relajadamente mortal y cargado de farfiseos y voces de ultratumba con el ritmo de la procesiones de las almas atajadas por la parca.
