Review
"Very few bands match the Kings' mastery of '60s sounds, and this is a prime collection of originals that brilliantly evoke the period, including a couple of songs that you'd swear were Rolling Stones outtakes." --Ken Barnes, USA TODAY

Review
"The Chesterfield Kings 'Psychedelic Sunrise' hits like some great, lost '60s Stones album." --Jed Gottlieb, BOSTON HERALD

Review
"Garage legends The Chesterfield Kings drop their latest slab o' snarling, cortex-shearing tuneage on the public this coming September 18. The title, appropriately enough, is Psychedelic Sunrise, and the venue is none other than Wicked Cool Records, the label founded by Little Steven, aka Steve 'E Street Band' Van Zandt, aka Sylvio Dante from The Sopranos....The man holds then in such high regard that he has a special corner of his website set aside for them with photos, discography and a mini-history." --Fred Mills, HARP MAGAZINE

Customer Reviews

The GREAT Chesterfield Kings
This band, and particularly this lineup, is THE best rock n' roll band on the planet. Saw them live at a garage rock gathering in Las Vegas several years ago and I'm a believer. This new album continues the 'Kings focus on blasting out quality tunes, with the right kind of production values. These guys really are the coolest band in the world!

THE CHESTERFIELD KINGS ARE THE KINGS
WHOA DAD! It's been 4 years since the excellent "the mindbending sounds" lp, and well worth the wait! Up another notch again, 12 more absolutely amazing songs and a fantastic sounding album from the best rock & roll band on this planet! This current lineup with mike and paul is f-ing amazing, man! YEAH! ESSENTIAL. ... buy this now.

They are still on top of Garage-Rock Revival
I just got this CD today. I am one happy garage camper. This band started the Garage-Rock Revival and remains the band to beat. They were infatuated by The Rolling Stones and remain so today. Other bands that gave tribute to the Stones and have disappeared, like The Chocolate Watchband, but this band is as prolific as the Stones.
You would think that a band after so many years wouldn't have any thing to offer, but this band will prove us all wrong.
The two songs that stand out or:
(1 of 12) Sunrise (Turn On) - The Chesterfield Kings - 2007 - "A FINE opening for this CD. Straight out of the "Stones" Their Satanic Majesties Request." - Psychedelic Sunrise (Wicked Cool Record)-2007.
(4 of 12) Elevator Ride - The Chesterfield Kings - 2007 - "BEST track on this CD? Nice Neo-psychedelic song." - Psychedelic Sunrise (Wicked Cool Record)-2007.

Other songs of note:
(5 of 12) Up And Down - Quote: The Kings' obsession with the mid-'60s is matched only by the skill and enthusiasm with which they can re-create the sounds of the era.
(7 of 12) Spanish Sun - Shades of new wave "Paint It Black" drifts in out in this song.
(9 of 12) Stayed Too Long - Another fine tribute to their favorite band (Rolling Stones).
(12 of 12) Down - A fine ending for this CD. Harmonica. Pure '60's guitar riffs.
