Description

Cover Notes: Kula Shaker return with their eighth studio album, ‘Wormslayer’, reaffirming their place as one of Britain’s most fearless and imaginative rock bands. Named after a 9th-century Indian poet king, the band have always existed in an alternate reality, mixing mysticism, psychedelia, and raucous rock ‘n’ roll energy. With ‘Wormslayer’, they continue that quest, creating a kaleidoscopic journey that feels both timeless and urgently fresh. From its opening moments, the album surges with evangelical fervor: a whirlpool of ’60s psychedelia, sumptuous soul, retro-funk and cosmic storytelling. At its core runs a thematic thread that unfolds like a psychedelic rock opera – tales of Faustian bargains, winged dreamers, and mythic struggles that mirror the band’s own uncompromising creative spirit.
