CRYSTALIZED MOVEMENTS - Mind Disaster

At long, long last, we are happy to announce the reissue of our very first record, Mind Disaster. The Crystalized Movements were formed in 1980 by Wayne Rogers and Ed Boyden, two Tolland High School freshmen brought together by a mutual love of No Wave & 60s psychedelia. After 3 years of experimenting (and countless versions of Gloria), they decided in early 1983 that it was time to make an LP. They recorded loose duo versions of some of Waynes songs, and then promptly split up after graduating from high school in June of 1983. Wayne, under the spell of the Plastic Cloud and Randy Holden, then spent the summer piling on mounds of guitar overdubs. The results were issued as Mind Disaster at the end of that year in a bank-breaking edition of 130 (as Twisted Village #1001). After a minor stir in collectors circles, it was reissued on the UK Psycho label with a new cover in 1984. It was received by the psychedelic revival community with universal horror and quickly went out of print. Wayne, meanwhile, added new members to the band and it treaded on as a little-known Connecticut institution until 1992....The years have been kind to Mind Disaster, and its wah-wah and fuzz overload have made it a much sought after LP. After uncountable requests from our adoring public, we are finally reissuing Mind Disaster, with its original cover. It is perhaps the last teenage garage-psych LP to be made in our time. Hope you like it. - Twisted Village.\r\n
