Since all topics where this band is mentioned (by members Slatibartfast and Jimboo) are now closed, thought I could make an official submission.
Plenty of reading material here:
Band overview - http://www.brumbeat.net/locomoti.htm - http://www.brumbeat.net/locomoti.htm
Single album review - http://www.brumbeat.net/revlocom.htm - http://www.brumbeat.net/revlocom.htm
Weird YouTube clip for the song Mr. Armageddon - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-T5zwGqjns - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-T5zwGqjns
Not sure about the genre. Reminds me a lot of Spirit. ------------- Bigger on the inside. |

Thanks Joćo. I've not heard this band's rare elements and now very amazed at very locomotive psychedelia...an interesting stuff. At least for me, feel a bit psych flavour is around them...how? ------------- http://www.facebook.com/damoxt7942" rel="nofollow">

I hear influences in the likes of Nektar, and other hard rock/prog bands, but isanity and psychedlia in the likes of Floyd's Atom Heart Mother, or the Hatfield & the North oriented Canterbury sound. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win!
