Dumbo Gets Mad – Thank You Neil

Italian psychedelic rockers Dumbo Gets Mad take listeners on a cosmic journey with their third album, Thank You Neil. Inspired by the wonder of Neil deGrasse Tyson’s documentary series “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey,” the album serves as a heartfelt tribute to the vastness of space. Expect swirling guitars and pulsating rhythms reminiscent of 70s psychedelic music, with clear nods to influences like Todd Rundgren, Alice Coltrane, Soft Machine, and Stark Reality. Dumbo Gets Mad also weaves in unexpected elements, drawing from Italian library music and the experimental soul of artists like Shuggie Otis. Thank You Neil isn’t just a space rock odyssey though; it’s a genre-bending exploration that reflects the awe-inspiring mystery of the universe.
