Sandi - 50:34 Satya is MSK’s second record for German label Elektrohasch, and it’s not so far removed from 2006′s self-titled musically. There are some sparse vocals, some sampled chants and finally a message from the Dalai Lama himself (how did they get him into the studio?), but mostly it’s just laid back psych grooves and fuzzy stoner guitars that get active but not necessarily aggressive on a cut like album centerpiece “A-Steya.“ No complaints on that front. If you can get behind the spirituality and haven’t heard enough about freeing Tibet from, well, everyone I guess, go for it. Should you happen to forget about all that stuff and just concentrate on the music — there’s a thought —
