Something abnormal is happening; a peculiar aura is making its presence known, equipped with a trance that is slowly taking over. Nowhere near familiar with the surroundings, helpless anxiety is creeping up. But after adjustment, intrigue sets in and it's evident that the journey being presented must be embarked on. Unsure of what to expect; emotions take hold, come and go and ultimately result in a total head-trip. Regardless, a destination is eventually reached, a moment of clarity has occurred and a life-changing discovery has been made. No you haven't just come down from a psychedelic trip, but you might as well have after spinning Sabrosa Purr's new EP Volaras.
Produced by Tracy Chrisholm (Stone Temple Pilots, Scott Weiland, Belly), Volaras takes the listener on a journey right from the get go; building up all the way until it comes crashing down. Weather you're listening to its trippy, peaceful Pink Floyd/Mars Volta-esk tracks "My Dirty Hands" and "One Weak Moment", or just simply taking in the unique blend of grunge meets ambiance that is "Hope I'm Not An Idiot", you're in for some interesting moments of enlightenment that will easily leave you wanting more.
Sabrosa Purr is as fascinating and genre defying as it comes. With the release of Volaras, the four-piece group from Los Angeles, California, has left listeners with high expectations for their upcoming, debut full-length release this fall. But if this is a sign of things to come, worry should be erased, because you're in for a good trip; you just need to be keen on going with it.
