Psychedelic hard-rock Holy Grail, originally released by this Greek band in 1976 but sounding more akin to late '60s/early '70s. Highly recommended to fans of HEAVY-FUZZ guitars, think Dark, Fire, Open Mind or even Spacemen 3 circa 'Revolution'! The 4 Levels Of Existence formed around 1974 in Athens from the ashes of a band called Frog's Eyes. Some of their influences were groups like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Who or Iron Butterfly as well as traditional Greek music. They recorded their sole album in just 10 hours with no overdubs and it was eventually released (500 copies only) on the small Venus label. The cover artwork was created by guitar player Athanasios Alatas. The band sadly split soon after but they left behind one of the most legendary and sought after albums not only from Greece but also from the worldwide heavy-prog scene. Remastered sound. Original artwork in hard cardboard sleeve + obi. Insert with liner notes by Klemen Breznikar (It's Psychedelic Baby) and rare photos/memorabilia. Includes 'Someday In Athens,' sampled on 'Run This Town' by Jay-Z feat. Rihanna and Kanye West.
