H.P. Lovecraft/H.P. Lovecraft II Review

H.P. Lovecraft's two self-titled albums are collected onto one disc that traces the band's development from a second-string psych band to a darker, proto-prog rock outfit. Despite some dated tracks on the first album and a slight lack of focus on the second, songs like "Wayfaring Stranger," "Time Machine," and "At the Mountains of Madness" showcase the unique harmonies and arrangments that made H.P. Lovecraft one of the most enduring cult psychedelic bands. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
