Fly Ashtray - Tone Sensations Of The Wonder Men
Review by Daniel Manzke
Fly Ashtray's album Tone Sensations Of The Wonder Men is a captivating and dynamic collection of experimental rock tracks that showcase the band's unique sound and creative vision.
From the opening track "Sonic Boom" to the closing song "Majestic," the album takes listeners on a journey through a wide range of musical styles and moods. The band's use of unconventional instrumentation and experimental production techniques adds an extra layer of intrigue and depth to the already compelling compositions.
The standout tracks on the album include "Hippie Powers," a trippy and psychedelic jam that showcases the band's improvisational skills and "Secrets," a haunting and atmospheric track that builds to a cathartic climax.
