VUM

I Recommend it- Henry Rollins

Totally ruling LA noir re-imagining of what the second Suicide record might have sounded like if Polly Jean Harvey fronted the band instead of Alan Vega. Hints of surf guitar bring you back to the west/best coast and give the whole happening a woozy, psychedelic glow. Featuring a former member of Lion Fever and Everlovely Lightningheart, this is hands-down the sexiest Living Tape yet!

~ Aaron Aldorisio, Amoeba Music Hollywood

Only unique souls with a deep knowledge of strange music, film, and prog mastery would have the desire and ability to intently appreciate or create the psychedelic minimalism that VUM is currently crafting for our cranial delight.

The most delicious psychedelic album I’ve heard from a contemporary band. Vum – ‘Strange Attractor.’

May 2, 2012: Echo Mountain by Vum.


Vum is an art rock/psych/prog/minimal synth band from L.A. I don’t know much about them other than that their second (and newest) album, Night Sun, was playing in a bar I was just at, and it was really good. Oh, and Henry Rollins says, “I recommend it.” Check out this amazing psychedelic track from Night Sun.

Neotomic: Music Video of the Week: VUM - "Savage"

Thank you neotomic for this review of the Savage video!

I don’t think I’m alone when I say I’m still recovering from how mind-blowingly awesome VUM’s new album Night Sun was. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to this rare slice of brilliance/buy yourself a copy, not only do I say shame on you, but either way you can now introduce yourself…
