Canada’s GONE COSMIC will be releasing their psychedelic fuzz rock debut album “Sideways In Time” on April 12, 2019, through Kozmik Artifactz. Teaming up with Kerrang!, the band is sharing with fans the full length’s full stream before it’s officially out!

The band comments:

“We are absolutely psyched to have our new album ‘Sideways In Time” streaming on Kerrang!. They are one of the most influential and long-running publications dedicated to rock, metal, and all things heavy, and we couldn’t be more honoured to have them share our tunes. We’ve been described as ‘if Mastodon and Pink Floyd had a love child that was raised by Janis Joplin and grew up listening to Black Sabbath’ and Kerrang! feels like the perfect place to share that love child.”

Hear the psychedelic vibes of GONE COSMIC’s “Sideways In Time” at the following link via Kerrang!: https://www.kerrang.com/the-news/exclusive-gone-cosmics-soulful-debut-will-send-your-head-straight-to-the-clouds/

“And then there’s Gone Cosmic with their Sideways In Time album, released through Kozmik Artifactz. Set for an early April release this is some grade A, female-fronted psych rock, it whirls and it winds and it wails like a hard rocking banshee on the prowl! Simply stunning!” – Stoner Hive

“Gone Cosmic give it a real good go though. Doing so with serious aplomb as the superb vocal range of vocalist Abbie Thurgood leads us through a selection of rollicking fuzzed out riff heavy tracks. From other-worldly and expansive walks through unknown landscapes to sludge-infused Southern rock and roll swamp treks, Gone Cosmic take us on a sonic journey.” – Games, Brrrains & A Head-Banging Life

“Sideways in Time will teleport you to a place where the beautiful and the brutal collide- it’s as if Mastodon and Pink Floyd had a love child that was raised by Janis Joplin and grew up listening to Black Sabbath.”  – Cody Smith – Frog E Style Productions

“It feels like an evolution of the genre” – Chris Beck – Doom Tomb

“Fresh off of announcing their signing to the Kozmik Artifactz label before the April release of their debut Sideways in Time (so bleeding bloody good, by the way), this Calgary supergroup comprised of members of Chron Goblin, Witchstone and Joplin-esque lung pummeler Abbie Thurgood, formerly of The Torchettes, are a heavy, groovy, psych-storm, headtrip. You’re welcome.” – Mike Bell – YYScene

“ It works in a spectacularly gnarly and boombastic, rifftastic, fantastic Joplin blues-rock way.” Mike Bell – YYScene

“Awakening the ears and seducing souls with an addictive pairing of folk-blues and psych-rock, Calgary’s Gone Cosmic is a band that thrives on the mix of complementary and contrasting traits that each member brings to the party. “  – Christine Leonard  – Beatroute

“The electromagnetic energy generated when Thurgood’s soaring vocals and passionate lyrical narratives are added to the compelling riffs and hypnotic pulses of the band’s instrumentation is a stunning and stimulating force to behold. “  – Christine Leonard  – Beatroute

Canada’s GONE COSMIC have released their second single, “Faded Release” off their upcoming debut album “Sideways In Time”. “Faded Release” is premiered on Beatroute and will definitely have you entranced in their psychedelic fuzz vibes.

Vocalist Abbie Thurgood comments:

“Faded Release is a throat punching, face melting, melodically driven trip. Starting off unknowingly sweet and approachable, quickly turning the tides to clutch your attention and shake your senses. It touches on the ultimate sacrifice and give-all nature that takes place for a loved one, be it a friend, a lover, a partner, etc. Faded Release focuses on when passion is what drives your intention and those surrounding see it as an opportunity to take advantage.”

A blood (orange)-scented breeze that bows the trees, Gone Cosmic chases the infinite haze from the skies and puts it right back in your eyes. Groove-mining breakdowns become the stuff of legend as the four pieces’ floor-thudding tail kick and hellfire halo holler originates a whole that is far more potent than the sum of its individual elements. Meet your new astromancers, the phase-shifting and hard- rocking force that channels the empyreal sounds of heaven on Earth.

Canada’s GONE COSMIC have released their first single, “Deadlock” off their upcoming debut album “Sideways In Time”. “Deadlock” is premiered on TheObelisk and will certainly satisfy cravings for powerful, soulful and progressive psychedelic rock.

Starting out with a single riff that flourishes into a multitude of insane riffs, GONE COSMIC combines thick n’ dirty bass lines, essential groove and energetic lyrics and melodies to create an intricate soundtrack to guide you on a galactic journey. “Deadlock” is the spaceship that allows the listener to tune out of the everyday immediate satisfaction and social media obsessed society and lose themselves in the ‘cosmic nod’ of the heavy psychedelic experience of the music.

The band comments:

“‘Sideways in Time’ was created for the every-day music lover and listener to lay on the floor and absorb the sounds and journey, to the well-seasoned musician to break it down and get technical. Our hope is that people enjoy what they hear and come out and catch a show. It’s a whirlwind for sure, these songs aren’t written with an ABC formulaic map.”
