The Spiral Electric

The Spiral Electric are a well-established light in San Francisco's rock firmament, bringing a powerful and exciting combination of dark, melodic psychedelia and visceral passion to the stage and studio. Celebrated by reknowned stoner-rock blog The Obelisk as "a band ready, willing, and able to space the hell out", who "bridge the generally disparate realms of heavy psych and riffer heavy rock", they alchemize soaring, memorable vocal melodies, wailing reverb-drenched garage twang, blistering stoner fuzz, dreamy keyboard textures, thundering bass grooves, and foot-stomping/air-punching rhythms into a fresh and original sound.

Their catalogue includes 3 releases-- debut <a href="spotify:album:1ERDHMxDwOD6nEppn8fded" data-name="Upon Your Shore">Upon Your Shore</a> and 2nd album <a href="spotify:album:2uxQ8zAC6iaJjXURpA2QOS" data-name="Ask the Sky">Ask the Sky</a> (both recorded with Tommy Dietrick / <a href="spotify:artist:26fEfm4QtTgQhNipYcijdQ" data-name="SKY PARADE">SKY PARADE</a>), to their most recent-- titled simply <a href="spotify:album:4sJw0wzE4fU0Clzeyb10e6" data-name="The Spiral Electric">The Spiral Electric</a>, a double-LP (recorded with Steve Kille of <a href="spotify:artist:0AI2um3PpFgOj7Yzmk2Xu0" data-name="Dead Meadow">Dead Meadow</a>).
