about
Aquarian Blood (from Memphis, Tennessee, United States) began as the home recording project of husband and wife J.B. and Laurel Horrell - both of Moving Finger, he of Ex-Cult and she formerly of Nots. The duo yielded two now out-of-print tapes of total trippiness on the ZAP cassette label before adding a crew of four (sometimes five) Memphis degenerates from assorted generations to play hypnotic, synth-y tracks based on the occult/cults, the paranormal and other obscurities. The full band released a Record Store Day 7-inch on Goner Records in 2015, and, more recently, a 7-inch on New Orleans' label Pelican Pow Wow. February 2017's Last Nite In Paradise, fifteen tracks that showcase a mix of those early ethereal tapes and the harsher psychedelic punk they stick to live these days, is their début full-length. "They play frantic lo-fi punk that pleasantly reminds me of Times New Viking — though for music this urgently abrasive, pleasant might not be the right word." - Stereogum User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
