Charley No Face’s debut album, *The Green Man*, released in 2020 on Forbidden Place Records, is a psych-rock fuzz masterpiece that blends stoner rock, psych-rock, 1970s hard and heavy rock, and progressive elements. This LP showcases the band’s progressive songwriting abilities, memorable vocal hooks and forward-thinking creativity, drawing on influences from traditional psychedelia, heavy rock, vintage 1970s sounds, indie chic and doom-laden marches. The album, regarded in some circles as album of the year, delivers high-calibre, timeless underground energy with sinister, chaotic vibes that dynamically shift between genres. The record stands out for its craftsmanship and offers eerie, no-nonsense rock explorations set against a post-utopian digital age theme, all wrapped up in a fuzzy, heavy psych assault. Available on CD, cassette and vinyl – including eye-catching yellow/red variants – it marks Charley No Face’s strong entry onto the scene, praised for the quality of the tracks, which feel both vintage and innovative.
