    Daughters Of The Sun at Mohawk

    Psychedelic music flowers anew every few years, sprouting from the seeds that originally germinated in the '60s in the Bay Area, Woodstock, and Krautrock-friendly German cafes. Add a new bursting bud to this garden with Minneapolis combo Daughters Of The Sun. The casual groove of the band's Rings mostly follows the post-millennial school of sprawling, jam-oriented psych, but to its credit, shows that Daughters Of The Sun can also create more polished songs. The band seems to love nothing better than a sprawling soundscape, with several tracks clocking in at six minutes—and a ballsy and intriguing, if overlong, 15 minutes is given to the almost formless "Field Recordings: India '08." If indulgent, it's also a good indication of how Daughters' sound will continue to blossom.
