LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

self release

Naxatras are a Greek psychedelic rock trio from Thessaloniki, formed in 2012 (originally as a quartet), known for their heavy, spacey jams infused with '70s rock influences and analog production .

This debut album (2015) was recorded entirely on analog equipment, captured live in a single day at Magnetic Fidelity with engineer Jesus I. Agnew—without any digital editing.

It features a fusion of psychedelic and stoner rock, marked by vintage grooves, fuzzy guitar tones, and expansive instrumental passages that evoke the sound of early Hawkwind and Pink Floyd.

The album gained significant international attention, becoming one of the best-selling titles in its genre and earning recognition as a modern underground psych-rock classic. Praised for its rich analog warmth and vibrant retro feel, it played a key role in propelling the band to global prominence.
