Album of the day

Destiny’s Children

Destiny's Children was Sky Saxon's first full-fledged attempt at a comeback in the 1980s. Released in 1986 as a vinyl LP and cassette, Destiny's Children sought to remind the emerging paisley underground and neo-psych movements of the 1980s, which drew their inspiration from 1960s psych-pop, that the godfather of it all was still here and still a force to be respected. This time Sky called his new band Fire Wall and continued to call himself by his new-ish moniker Sky Sunlight Saxon. Destiny's Children was issued in the US on the PVC label. (The album was released on vinyl in France as ...A Groovy Thing.) Destiny's Children is goofy and fun garage rock, absolutely succeeding in its musical intent. Sky's first new music in years had been Side 1 of the Masters Of Psychedelia LP in 1984, an abortive heavy metal affair that, if nothing else, served notice that Sky was still around and still capable of passionate music.
