They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky...Sydneyfour-some Richard In Your Mind cultivate weird neo-psychedelia similarto The Flaming Lips, Syd Barrett, Beck or Elephant Six. Their debutfull-length THE FUTURE PREHISTORIC is a beautiful mess. They makerambling, quirky, creepy Eastern-influenced psych rock employing atruly awesome arsenal of instruments: air organ, sitar, panflute,backwards loops, space synths, trumpets, maracas and maybe atheremin. You'd be forgiven for thinking someone dosed the punch atband camp.

But don't worry, this trip ain't no bummer, and itwon't harsh your mellow. RIYM's exuberance and silly lyrics keep theirmusic more playful than menacing. Finally the nerds are taking acid.
