NEBULA have been a stoner rock force since guitarist Eddie Glass broke away from the equally formidable FU MANCHU with former drummer Ruben Romano in 1997. Having established themselves as monolithic live phenomenon, the stoner rock veterans are back with a colossal seventh album to satisfy all your stoner, space rock and psychedelic needs. Transmissions From Mothership Earth dials up the cosmic strangeness and attempts to communicate with life from beyond the cosmos. Following on from their acclaimed 2019 album Holy Shit, NEBULA once again rise to the challenge and continue their run of form, venturing through a variety of evolving soundscapes to transport you beyond the stratosphere.

Masters of blending the best elements of BLACK SABBATH with psychedelia and space rock, NEBULA have always been pioneers of their own unique take on stoner rock. What separates Transmissions From Mothership Earth from their previous work however, is that the album feels more conceptual, with a high level of focus on tying the songs together with a single galactic thread. Whilst the story is left for the listener to interpret for themselves, there is definitely a narrative running through the album, whether it be actually trying to communicate with some stoned aliens or just getting high and hallucinating that you're communicating with some stoned aliens.

Transmissions From Mothership Earth has a more expansive quality as an album in comparison to Holy Shit or even one of the band's classic albums like To The Centre. Yet the stoner rock titans have brought some familiar musical approaches from 2009's Heavy Psych - Warzone Speedwulf being a prime example of this. The song stands out from the rest of the album as it sees NEBULA delve deep into the psychedelic lost oddities box to create a continuously evolving soundscape of warped vocals and driven guitar solos that drift from ear to ear. Even so, NEBULA never stray far from their sun-drenched, desert roots. The album was recorded in the Mojave desert, and those deep desert grooves mixed in with spacey, melodic vocals and rumbling, effervescent bass, are the beating heart of the album. Despite the lyrical matter being in space, Transmissions From Mothership Earth is still firmly grounded and incredibly earthy.

NEBULA effortlessly continue their strong form here, tapping into a rich vein of creativity that has seen the band expand their sound as well as unleashing a few surprises. Transmissions From Mothership Earth is an intensely enjoyable journey through a hazy cosmos in the mind, its vivid riff writing taking you on a far out journey beyond the Milky Way.
