(Review from vintageprog.com)

Hawkwind was joined by violinist Simon House (ex-High Tide) on their 5th album. Some of the heaviest riffs were toned down a bit in favour of much more majestic and symphonic soundscapes dominated by organ, synths, Mellotron, violin and choir. This can be heard especially well on the beautiful instrumental “Wind of Change” and the fantastic, grandiose and very atmospheric “D-Rider”. The production and arrangements of the latter have to be some of the biggest sounding and most spacey ever. But the band could still rock hard and energetic on “You’d Better Believe It” and the best song Lemmy ever wrote for the band: “Lost Johnny”. The best-known track from the album, “Psychedelic Warlords (Disappear in Smoke)” and “Paradox” fused the old riff-style with their newfound symphonic sound in a very striking way. And in between all these tracks are also some short interludes like “Goat Willow” and the title-track. “Hall of the Mountain Grill” is a masterpiece of symphonic space-rock.

- Dave Brock / vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, organ synthesizers
