Description
Seelie Court - the world's premier label for rare and previously unreleased archive recordings of underground folk, rock, proto-metal, and psychedelic music presents Sympathy for the Madman. In 1969 the leader of British Psychedelic legends Arcadium created a project exploring the darkest edges of Progressive Folk Rock. No recordings were thought to have survived (Miguel Sergides lost all his belongings in a house fire in the '80s) until the fateful discovery of the unique Anaconda acetate LP in 2019. The LP is a revelation revealing a Stygian underworld of British Folk Rock that links Anaconda to Tea & Symphony, Forest, Lifeblud, Horizon and Comus. Predating Comus, Anaconda has a very similar sound using violins and flutes but is laced with aching melancholia and themes of alienation. It is a genuine Lost Masterpiece of Folk Rock, one of three works of genius created by Sergides - Arcadium, Anaconda and The Savanna Silver Band.
