Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus

Featuring Spirit's least successful but greatest album, Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus. Classical-electronic crossover from Anna Meredith and a sludgey new single by The Melvins.

Stuart features Spirit's least successful but greatest album Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus. Charting at #63, an all time low for the American psych-rock band, Twelve Dreams has since been hailed as hugely influential and ahead of its time. Plus a new track from Anna Meredith who surfs the boundaries of classical and electronic music; Godspeed You! Black Emperor member Efrim Menuck's first solo record and an as-sludgey-as-ever new single from The Melvins.
