“The drums sound like Can’s ‘Vitamin C’ as the guitars play a frantic game of snakes and ladders through the kaleidoscopic soundscapes.” - NME
"Psyence are now ready to show the world what they’ve got, in their case face melting 60s rock that sounds like Wooden Shjips drowning in a thick, molten vat of acidic organs and churning riffs. The aptly titled Chemicals For Breakfast means your cornflakes will never taste the same again." - Q magazine
"This isn't some flower power ideology: rather, this is cheap drugs in a run down bedsit, furious escapism from concrete surroundings." - CLASH
Discography
Still working on that hot first release.

Bio
Stoke-on-Trent psych-extraordinaires Psyence are a band so authentically different from its genre that it can only have outgrown it.
Shirking the kraut-rock and dark side of post-psych, while transcending the eternal cheesiness of the free-love Daisy age, Psyence are a band so differentiated from anyone else that it can only be described as stepping into new undiscovered frontiers. Blurring the lines of 60's Americana garage rock and flirting with modern-day psychedelia such as Pond and Temples, Psyence is an intense chemical reaction of face-melting riffs, spacious vocals and groove-based rhythms that have been locked away up north to slowly mature away from the 'style over substance' London psych scene.
