The Best Psychedelic Albums of the 21st Century
I didn't realise the task I'd taken on when I started this list. I made it harder for myself by only featuring one album per artist. So what you have here are the 100 'psychedelic' albums by 100 artists. This stopped me from adding 4 or 5 Flaming Lips albums. It will probably annoy the old heads but I wanted this to be more than just another Psych Rock list. So we have bands that flirted with the mainstream such as MGMT and Tame Impala, the cosmic Jazz of The Comet Is Coming and Kamasi Washington, Psychedelic Soul from Kadhja Bonet and even Psychedelic Hip Hop from Shabazz Palaces. Plus all of the big names such as Goat, Animal Collective, The Black Angels, Dungen, and Wooden Shjips (and then there's Foxygen!) I could easily make another list with 100 more artists, so I probably will. I'm sure I missed something really important, so leave a comment below and let me know what should be on the next list. (Some reviews below may not reflect the opinion of this list compiler). EDIT: I somehow missed out The Warlocks, so had to make it 101 albums. Click an album below to read a review
