D.C. I love the guitar riffs and how they perfectly blend with the amazing voice! Good job! Favorite track: Razorblade.

Bryan Fuzz-fried psych rock with a bluesy swagger and a powerhouse singer? Sign me up! "Razorblade,' with its serpentine riff and classic pop-rock is clearly the single, but for my money, the lysergic boogie of "Swimming Through The Sea of Mercury" shows the band at the height of its power. Favorite track: Swimming Through The Sea Of Mercury.
DenpaFuzz

DenpaFuzz The album hits with crunchy riffs muddying everything, but also knows how to recover a legacy of pure hard-rock. A primitive and solid sound, full of passion that the band itself calls psychedelic-fuzz. I will not be the one to question such a qualifier, because the truth is that among the hordes of nebulous fuzz, we find many psychedelic effluvia. Review: denpafuzz.com/2021/03/11/resena-cactus-flowers-solace-ep/ Favorite track: Razorblade.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) Psych-tinted fuzzed out stoner rock over which distinctive vocal tones voice cryptic tales, good stuff! Favorite track: Razorblade.

Justin@BlindMouse Fuzzy Cracklins shone the light on the Cactus Flowers for me, and I am forever thankful!! Dig the back catalogue and donโ€™t sleep on this release.

Bucky 'Solace' shines on with a sultry swagger of serrated riffs, blooming with aural grit and cosmic fuzz. Reminds me of the first time I heard the band 'Royal Thunder' a decade or so ago, and this new EP by Cactus Flowers has reinvigorated that nostalgia for hard-edged bluesy psych rock. Mind Blown! Favorite track: Razorblade.

Razorblade 05:14
Razorblade It makes me safe, the flick of the blade Gentle Intimidations Can't wait until you Draw first blood I sit in the shade, enjoying my day And then you come along You sure got a lot to say You do not know where I am coming from That's ok I don't really like you You see your whole life is a lie You sleep with the shy, to control their mind And weaknesses You do not know what I am saying That's ok I don't really like you Razorblades are your last foray And I'll take them away, and now you're not safe It's crippling Razorblades A life on the road, it's taking its toll Projecting imperfections I've got it and you want it Refuse to see What's written in stone, they like what they own Best to be unaffected You control your path Misguided inner laps You do not know where you're going! And nobody's missing you! Wipe your in discrepancies Take time for yourself You do not know where you're going Do you believe your pretense? Pause Can't Save it for later! Now You Know you're in danger! Ra-zor-blades will stab you! I yield only for servitude!

Do You Want Me Your eyes are wider when we're on the floor Every little inch is up for getting explored I like to shy, and then I like to go wild Every single day I'm really digging your style Well I'll pick my baby up when he is far too gone And when we're sinking, drudging, dazed & confused Well every little inch is up for getting unglued I like to shy, and then I like to go wild But more and more each day I'm really diggin' your style I'll keep my baby warm when his body is weak! And just like the rest, you'll see the best of me Sassarella screams her name over and over! I can't get no attention when you're flirting with disaster Fly into my life - all my stories are far too young! Well I got no deliverance story so give it up Do, do you want me? X 4 Let's nod our heads and then we'll see what's next Well I will pull the trigger when the timings correct I like to shy, and then I like to go wild But every day's a breeze when I can make you smile! I dig my baby's soul and his whole damn world! But he don't know just what my lovings worth Sassarella screams her name over and over! I can't get no attention when you're flirting with disaster Fly into my life - all my stories are far too young! Well I got no deliverance story so give it up Do, do you want me? X 4

Swimming Through The Sea of Mercury Swimming Through The Sea of Mercury Moonlight hits like stone, but absorption's deadly Move my arms from front to back I can't see what's in front of me All inhibition lost through parting, calming waves My soul's at ease Sheltered from a world of greed Manipulation's hard to see We're using by the cherry tree A Hollywood Life is the kind to lead Yeah nuisances are all you see They're lining up to give you heat Identified by the the circle they keep A waste of space and odyssey Grandeur created by the light your shining in my eye If you want a piece of mind then honey Hit the road Combat wits with fists of pride Feel it getting heavy, resonating, Pressure's on the rise And horizon testifies that only solitude will save your life

Dirty Double Vision I don't want a thing from you Fire sign All your rage and jealousy Will make you blind When it boils up your skin It kills you off I don't want a thing from you Fire sign Cause you You got nothing to do with me And I I see everything, especially your Dirty, double vision Your dirty, double vision I don't want a thing from you July Sky Catching up to throw me back Onto my side When it catches you off guard It shoves you off I don't want a thing from you July Sky Cause you You got nothing to do with me And I I see everything especially your Dirty, double vision Your dirty double vision
