GONG - THE UNIVERSE ALSO COLLAPSES
(Kscope Records)Release date: Friday, May 10th 2019
Bertus Records
Gong is more than a band. It’s an idea. A way of life. A continuum that exists in all times,
in all places, everywhere. Gong’s new album, The Universe Also Collapses, is the latest shining point on that continuum, a masterpiece of visionary 21st century psychedelia, a celebration of the magic of science, a journey both internal and external, bridging the worlds of lysergic exploration and quantum physics, equal parts Terence McKenna and Stephen Hawking. This is the second album since the death in 2015 of Daevid Allen, the maverick genius who founded Gong more than 50 years ago in a flash of LSD-fuelled inspiration. If 2016’s Rejoice! I’m Dead! was a tribute of sorts to the band’s departed talisman, then The Universe Also Collapses marks the dawning of a new chapter.
