Classic Rock MagazineMay 30, 2019A breezy, funky prog-ssych knockabout. [Jul 2019, p.83]

May 24, 2019Doused in the kind of mysticism that drenched the original psych scene, oblique lyrics about being the sun and a cascading approach to influences, Levitation still manages to retain a lot of the expansive wonder that so much modern psych has neglected.
