Favorite Psychedelic Songs
Name 15 of your favorite psychedelic songs, but no more than 5 songs per band. (Otherwise, I'd have a list of nothing but Beatles and Monster Magnet.) I put my list in alphabetical order.
1.Baby Gotterdammerung - Monster Magnet 2. Boris - Melvins; I'd call it psychedelic, just slow and sludgy. Or maybe I'm just trying to justify sneaking the Melvins in somewhere. 3. Come Together - Beatles 4. Dopes To Infinity - Monster Magnet 5. Fairies Wear Boots - Black Sabbath 6. I Am The Walrus - Beatles; Perhaps my favorite psychedelic song. 7. Joan Crawford - Blue Oyster Cult; The lyrics are insane. 8. L.A. Woman - Doors 9. Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf 10. Man on the Silver Mountain - Rainbow 11. Octopus's Garden - Beatles 12. Subhuman - Blue Oyster Cult 13. Tales of Brave Ulysses - Cream 14. Waitin' for the Bus/Jesus Just Left Chicago - ZZ Top 15. Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon I didn't include bands like Electric Wizard or Sleep. They're great stoner bands, but not exactly what I mean by 'psychedelic'. |
Pink Floyd's Time is one of my best and your list songs are also my favourite.

Personally the old 70s stuff, besides Pink Floyd and Hendrix, wasn't at all Psychedelic compared to the stuff that is created these days. With that said, here are my top five most psychedelic songs (meaning they aren't necessarily psychedelic rock songs, but instead invoke a psychedelic atmosphere):
5. Dark Stars in a Dazzling Sky - Acid Mothers Temple 4. 50 Million Year Trip - Kyuss 3. Time - Pink Floyd 2. Drip Drip by Comus 1. Dopesmoker - Sleep |
Iron Butterfly- The one, the only- In Da Gada Da Vida.
The Doors- Riders On The Storm |
