dmeikel Same, same... but different! The powerful voice, vocals and instruments are just great. Everything fits here. If I had to give a song tip, just listen to the whole record. It's my single malt blues rock ;-) ! Favorite track: Bottle In Me.

salmanassar Instruments may seem run of the mill but then the guitar chases the organ or does something unexpected. Add in Leslie and it sounds raw & real. Favorite track: I Got It Going On.

about

Same, same…but different

Live studio performance of Wrong again, Albert...

In a world before the Apocalypse, when bands could meet of an evening in dark fragrant rooms, strewn with crumpled beer cans and ashtrays, overflowing with the charred remains of epic jams and goofy grins, The Cosmic Trip Advisors assembled.

There was little purpose to their gathering (some vague mumblings about trying out new tunes). It was just another rehearsal. But the vibes were good, the creative cogs were lubricated and somebody remembered to press the big red record button.

And with that simple flick of a switch, this album was born.

It’s a bit loosey. It’s a bit goosey. It’s occasionally a wee bit out of tuney. More importantly, it’s a joyous, swaggering romp through the entire “Wrong again, Albert…” album. There are no 2nd takes, safety nets, overdubs or sneaky cheats. This is what the album would have sounded like if it was recorded at a keg party in an hour with six months more rehearsal under our belt. The icing on the cake is Lesley’s incendiary vocal performance throughout. If you loved her singing on “Wrong again, Albert…”, just wait until you hear what she’s pulled out of the bag this time.

This is our debut album’s unintentionally saucy little sister. You know, the dirty one you wish you’d met first.

In short, it’s same, same...but different.

Turn it up brothers and sisters. Turn it all the way up!

Cosmically Yours,
Lesbomb, El Cap, Tattie, The P Man, 9 Days & Pete The Beat

about

The Cosmic Trip Advisors Edinburgh, UK

The Cosmic Trip Advisors hail from West Lothian in Scotland and are a rock ’n’ roll band with a heart of soul. Rock ’n’ Soul, if you will. In their world, Iggy can rub shoulders with Keef, Dolly can pinch Jimi on the arse & Macca can launch a goober at Rotten while Gram hums his approval from underneath a dusty old cactus...it's all good in the gumbo soup. Can you dig it? ... more
