Southern California-based Psychedelic Rock band Vasoline Tuner have delved further into surrealism for their latest album Cancelled Crystal Balls and have embraced lo-fi production aesthetics for the new collection.

The band introduce themselves thus:

Welcome to Vasoline Tuner, a tongue in cheek, cynical act channeling a happy little stoned ghost from a planet adjacent to the one we are on. The planet with meat and bubbles growing on every field, on every street and where imagination is king.

As well as being a Psychedelic Punk band, Vasoline Tuner are also an Experimental Rock band based around the work of guitarist/vocalist/ songwriter Billy Tsounis.

Billy Tsounis describes the album:

It’s a collection of songs with an underlying theme of cosmic irreverence, lo- fi campiness and caustic surrealism all covered in a fat and trippy rock attitude.

Tsounis explains about the album title and concept:

The title of the album – ‘Cancelled Crystal balls’ – it’s something that I metaphorically used in the sense of the cancel culture situation/ experience and crystal balls being used to supposedly look into the future so I was getting at the future through someone else’s eyes and superstitions and thus all that is cancelled . It can also be someone’s balls all crystal and non hairy and easily breakable or getting psychic readings from a crystal scrotum. Could be a new trend you never know.
