Lid - In The Mushroom - CD

The 1997 Album Of Catchy Psychedelic Heavy Rock From Anathema’s Daniel Cavanagh & Trouble’s Eric Wagner, Now On Kscope.

Lid was a project formed in the latter half of the 1990’s by Daniel Cavanagh of UK greats Anathema, along with legendary vocalist Eric Wagner from US doom metal legends Trouble. Joining the 2 were Timothy & Tommy Reeves on bass & drums respectively.

The fruits of this union emerged in 1997 with the release of their sole, classic album, ‘In The Mushroom’, combining the heavier rocking & melodic traits of both acts plus an element of psychedelia. Along with what could be termed stoner rock parts, there was also a notable Beatles-esque quality to some of the compositions. This release incidentally even includes a stellar cover of the Beatles classic, ‘Don’t Let Me Down’, joining the cover of The Monkees’ ‘Randy Scouse Git’ for a dynamic ride full of hooks, accomplished songwriting & an injection of Wagner’s poetic depth.

‘In The Mushroom’ was produced by Eric Wagner, along with Vincent Wojno (having previously worked with Eric with Trouble). The album was mixed at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, CA.

This edition of ‘In The Mushroom’ is presented on CD including four page booklet with lyrics.
