"One Sunday night, in Portland, OR, a local public radio station broadcast KBA playing live in the studio. It was one of the most magical nights I've ever encountered. I remember sitting in the dark and being completely swept away by King Black Acid's incredible musical journey. I can still hear the host of the show saying: "Woooooooow... those are the powerful sounds of King Black Acid... and now you know why they're called King.... Black Acid." Everyone should have this CD in their collection simply for the reason that it is a time piece and a beautifully inspired work of art. Thank you KBA."

The greatest album no one's ever heard.

"I've only seen one copy of this album, and it's the one I have. If I could find other copies, I would buy them all and hand them out to people. Its probably the only recording of the nineties that can be placed on the same pedestal as ABBEY ROAD, DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, AND QUADROPHENIA. I am certain everyone would agree with that, but no one's heard it. If I had to recommend one album to the entire world, this would be it."

"When I just recently came across this CD,I specially remember it sounding pretty 'out there'.To best describe this band from Portland,OR is most likely as 'inventive space rock'.Has four lengthy tracks in which each one serves it's purpose well.I always thought the ten-minute opener "The Wave" sounded like perhaps a Hawkwind record being played backwards in a haunted house.Turns out to be a group of chanting monks being sampled.Whew!Trippy.Was sort of also impressed with the fifteen-minute somewhat pop-like "Alone On Mars".I,personally believe that 'Womb...' is a great unheard of(by most) CD that many people will never get the chance to hear.Prove me wrong.Should appeal to fans of Flying Saucer Attack,Spacemen 3,The Verve,Amp and Mercury Rev."
