Popis - THE LAST DAZE OF THE UNDERGROUND - DELER:
Delerium records germinated in 1991 when Richard Allen (free festival frequenter, Freakbeat magazine co-editor and
music columnist for Oz/ It revivalist s encyclopaedia psychedelica) was encouraged by the legendary us
journalist/rock maverick Greg Shaw to create a UK label that would appeal to the many underground bands that had
emerged in the UK during the late 1980s. The label s first release was a compilation of international recordings
entitled Psychedelic Psauna, which united American, European and UK bands who were then producing a diverse range
of psychedelic, space rock and garage rock linked in spirit if unconnected by style. That first release included not
only the debut CD appearance of hugely popular free festival act Ozric Tentacles but also the first commercial
excursion by a mysterious band called Porcupine Tree, the bedroom project of a young Steven Wilson. Between 1991 and 2004 Delerium would go on to issue not only the core catalogue of the now world famous Porcupine Tree - including their land mark albums the Sky Moves Sideways and Signify - but would also be responsible for ensuring that a number of important underground UK free festival and neo-psychedelic bands from the 1980s and 1990s were able to secure a recorded legacy including Omnia Opera, Dead Flowers, Treatment, Nukli, Mandragora, Kava Kava,
Sons Of Selina, Suicidal Flowers, Praise Space Electric, Saddar Bazaar, Dean Carter, Zuvuya and others. The label, driven primarily by Allen s love for psychedelic music also signed up european and american artists including us freak folk pioneer Jeff Tarlton (ex Viv Akauldren) germany s Electric Orange, italy s Kryptasthesie, Swedens Spacious Mind, Ireland s Steppes, Norway s Tangle Edge and two albums featuring Terence McKenna the late and legendary ethnobotanist, and psychedelic philosopher. Delerium sub-label Molten saw the release of the first two albums by acclaimed uk heavy rock stoner trio Josiah aswell as albums by Danish band On Trial, membersof whom
would later form Danish garage rock band Baby Woodrose.
Delerium was to be perhaps the last label of the UK musical underground that could directly trace its cultural lineage directly back through the free festival movement to the 1960s psychedelic explosion.
