“I was only loosely familiar with Echolot upon taking this promo. The prospect of ‘Psychedelic Doom,’—as their blurb announces—intrigued me, however. As it turns out, this would be a leap much further out of my comfort zone than I was bargaining for. For Curatio, the group’s fourth LP, is not doom, even if at times it displays that sensibility. It’s prog. At the risk of incurring the wrath of my esteemed colleagues, this is not a genre I have much fondness for (unless it comes with a much stronger dose of death perhaps). Not one to back out in the face of adversity, I persevered.” Stir of Echolot.
