]]> Mooner “Tabiat” 2017. Limited edition clear w/color swirl vinyl, Outer Battery Records/Bhang Records. Heavy Indonesian psychedelic rock. This LP showed up in my to-do pile and I know nothing about it so from the album page on Outer Battery’s website: “Released as a companion album to our Shark Move reissue, Mooner update the heavy psych sounds of early 70’s Indonesia while staying true to the roots of the original scene. Featuring members of The Slave, The SIGIT, Sigmun and Sarasvati, Mooner are a supergroup of the Indonesian heavy/hard rock scene. Tabiat is Mooner’s first full length and it’s a monster, 12 tracks of heavy psych with strong influences of Indian Raga and Middle Eastern touches thrown into a stoner rock stew…Tabiat is an extremely limited release, with just a few hundred copies being made available outside of Indonesia.” I can’t understand any of the lyrics but it doesn’t matter – the music is amazing. Head-banging Sabbath beats, hypnotic bass and buzzy guitars behind female vocals that alternate between slightly lo-fi and soaring, layered yelps. My top tracks include the opener “Buruh/Pemburu,” the groovy “Hei,” the shredding, ass-shaking “Lancang” and the wild “Serikat Penyembuh.”
