This Timeless Turning came out in 1994 on World Domination Recordings, and Sky Cries Mary, the Seattle outfit Roderick Wolgamott had started a few years before, pushed it in a way nobody had tried: they broadcast an entire concert live over the internet, the first band ever to do it.
The music is just as far-out. It's psychedelic rock by way of the trance floor, drawing on the band's early love of European industrial acts like Einstürzende Neubauten, Coil and Test Department as well as the glam and punk of Lou Reed, Iggy Pop and David Bowie. The result is a swirl of hypnotic pulse and dreamy drift, made for losing track of time. Jon Davison, later of Yes and Glass Hammer, began his long run with the band that year. It followed A Return to the Inner Experience, gave way to Moonbathing on Sleeping Leaves, and AllMusic later rated it the high point of their catalog.
