Green vinyl. "Ekranopla"n's one of those albums that never really gets old. That also makes it one of those albums that's ridiculously difficult to follow-up. For starters, "When Sweet Sleep Returned" is a much more easy going album with less explosive moments of hard rock psychedelia and with more of an emphasis of bucolic, sunny day harmonies and alt-country strumming. That openness is prevalent throughout When Sweet Sleep Returned, which means that it does the near-impossible and bests Ekranoplan. This isn't the album for those craving an acid soaked, wild eyed freak out, but for those who aren't afraid of both a little beauty and a little alt with their psych rock, you're doing yourself a favor by picking this one up.
