Bit `A Sweet, formerly known as The Satisfactions, were a 60s psychedelic rock band from Long Island. the band released their only album "Hypnotic 1" in 1968 on the ABC label.
Hypnotic 1 is indeed hypnotic, as a good portion of the effort emits a spacy psychedelic fragrance heightened by the cutting edge technology of the day. Synthesizers, sitars and orchestral passages, combined with cosmic flavored lyrics consume the tracks. Every member of the band sings, depositing drafts of delectable harmonies in the process. Blanketed in an atmospheric haze, threaded with Gregorian chants, “Speak Softly” gradually mushrooms into a swell of snaking sitar riffs and symphonic structures. Gregorian chants arise again on the spooky “Travel” that clearly pinches inspiration from “Glimpses” by the Yardbirds.
“Hypnotic 1 is full of neat surprises, making for an overlooked gem of its genre”
