Psychoriffadelia
“Geezer provide hazy blues rock echoing through moonlit canyons under starry skies, a moreish Peyote for altering the minds of easy riders everywhere.” - Metal Hammer
The power of the riff. The allure of the psychedelic. The intensity of the electricity. These are the things that bring us together, these are the things that create Psychoriffadelia.
Recorded mostly live at Redbird Studio on 9/10/16 in New York City, the songs of Psychoriffadelia came together over the course of that summer. It had been months since we turned in the masters for our self titled album, yet still a few months until the album was released. We had been playing shows with Charles Ruggiero on drums while Chris Turco was on a work related hiatus. During that time, riffs arose, jams happened and songs were created. We wanted to capture that moment, no matter how fleeting.
"Psychoriffadelia is the result of Geezer firing at max volume on all cylinders, expanding on the self-titled while reinforcing that album’s accomplishments with a brazen next step forward. Don’t be fooled by the quick turnaround — there’s growth here." - The Obelisk
Since 2010, Geezer has been bridging the gaps between the heavy, the trippy and the groovy to create a distinct form of Cosmic Stoner Blues. Over the years, we’ve released multiple albums, played many shows throughout the Northeastern US, done a short tour out to Detroit and back and shared the stage with the likes of High On Fire, Earthless, Wo Fat, Mothership, King Buffalo and many others. Soon we will even be playing a gig with Zakk Sabbath, Zakk Wylde’s Black Sabbath cover project! Over this time, we have developed an amazing and devoted international following, many of whom reside in Europe. With this new album and tour, we are hoping to finally give our European fans what they’ve been waiting for, a chance to experience Geezer live… for the very first time!

Why a crowd funding campaign?
While we are getting paid for the gigs and we will be selling merch along the way, getting the band over to Europe and making sure we have the equipment we need and the means to get where we are going cost A LOT of money. Frankly, the flights alone cost more than everything else combined.
The money you contribute will go directly to:
- Flights to and from Europe
- Backline gear and van
- Travel visas for the UK
- Travel expenses like gas and tolls
- The manufacturing of the new album on vinyl and other perks
Perks
The Featured Perk of this campaign is the Exclusive Die Hard Vinyl Edition of our new album, Psychoriffadelia. Although this album is already available on vinyl through Kozmik Artifactz Records (Germany) and STB Records (US), the “Die Hard” Edition is only available through this campaign. The Die Hard vinyl includes a hand screened jacket of alternate artwork designed by Kim Zangrando, a limited edition “Geezer Live at Freak Valley Festival” poster designed by Jo Riou (signed by the band) and a never before available embroidered Geezer Planet patch. For a few dollars more, we’ll even include your name in the album credits!
Many other killer perks are included in this campaign, we urge you to take a look and find which one best suits your needs.

What's the point?
We hope that this crowd funding campaign is the first step into a new future for Geezer and our fans. If all goes well with this tour, then chances are we’ll be asked back again. Each time we go back we will become more self sufficient, first breaking even and then hopefully getting to the point where the band is actually making money! (What?!? Dare say you!)
In return, you get exclusive gear, a beautiful hand screened album, new music and some seriously awesome swag that you just can’t get anywhere else!
But it all starts with YOU! Today is the day that we make this future happen together. TODAY is the day that we look back on as the day that changed everything!
Can you dig it?
