🇺🇸 Biographie (Français)
Originaire d’Austin, Texas, The 13th Floor Elevators ont été les pionniers du rock psychédélique dès le milieu des années 60, portés par la voix incantatoire de Roky Erickson, la guitare vibrante de Stacy Sutherland, et un instrument totalement inédit dans le rock : la jug électrique jouée par Tommy Hall. Leur influence est considérable, bien que leur carrière ait été courte et troublée par les excès, les arrestations et les troubles mentaux de Roky. Cette anthologie, publiée en 2002, regroupe l’essentiel de leur Å“uvre studio (les albums The Psychedelic Sounds of... et Easter Everywhere), des singles rares, des démos et des performances live. Un voyage sonore fascinant à travers le rock acide américain des origines.
🇺🇸 Biographie (English)
Formed in Austin, Texas in the mid-1960s, The 13th Floor Elevators were among the first bands to label their music "psychedelic rock." Led by the manic vocals of Roky Erickson, the reverb-drenched guitar of Stacy Sutherland, and the signature electric jug played by Tommy Hall, they forged a unique sound that blended garage rock with visionary lyrics and mind-expanding textures. Despite legal troubles and internal chaos, their influence on modern alternative and psychedelic scenes remains enduring. The Psychedelic World is a 3-CD box set capturing their raw studio albums, rare tracks, and intense live moments.
