St. Mikael

Soul Flower

Very Rare original Swedish Psych LP released on Xotic Mind Records in 1996. 1st pressing on the in a fold round gatefold sleeve complete with book.

"This double LP is the best album I've ever released, but it's his Most unconventional as well. The four sides of" Soul Flower "all bear a different character: Side A is more or less the ST: Mikael we know from previous LPs: the melancholic psychedelic singer / songwriter who records all his twisted songs on his home equipment with a skill and a passion seldom Demonstrated elsewhere. Highlights here are the pounding "Godly" and the moody "Beyond the Haze." Side B is the strangest But Also one of the best. ST Mikael experimented with Turkish ethnical instruments and musical style elements, resulting in the magnificent title track, the intriguing "The Titans" and the exotic, fuzzy "The Turkish Flower." Side C Brings songs from one session and it shows ST Mikael in a very emotional, spiritual mood, I sings and plays his songs with the intensity of a young Tim Buckley. Highlights here are the long, semi-instrumental "Moving ... Together" and the elegant "She Came With The Spring ". Side D features only two tracks, the dreamy, soft" The Night Stars "and" Summer In My Life ", a long jam (filling almost entertained by the side) recorded in the In Deep-studio with backing by Adam Axelzon and other friends. "/" All of this Resulted in an utterly stoned, mind lifting instrumentation with layers of exotic percussion, sitars going overdrive, spacy keyboards and burning guitar lines, an absolute best on an album full of high-quality psychedelics. ST Mikael proved Please once again to be a gifted songwriter and an unconventional performer with a very individual ear for acoustics and an emotional honesty seldom seen These Days. "
