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.

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.

A wee band fae doon the road. Just played the vinyl. It is outstanding! The bar is set so high for their next album, if they can reach anywhere near this one then it will be brilliant.

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

Scottish band of astonishing talent and taste. Three blokes, three amazing voices, timeless songs and all played like their life depends on it. Old school rock n roll for the soul. Dig it…we do! The Cosmic Trip Advisors
The band that nearly was…but never quite got there. Wonderful, melancholic indie rock with soaring vocals that will make your heart sing. The Cosmic Trip Advisors
The debut album by Arvi is a thing of beauty. The exquisitely crafted songs are enhanced by a production that mixes the lush with the lo-fi. A real gem of a record! The Cosmic Trip Advisors

This just has some great vibes all around - from the energy of 56th Floor and Symphony of the ironic sympathy to the gentle, laid back Soul Keeper - it’s worth the time to listen to it all. potaytoes

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art?
But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst
