Nicholas Allbrook used to play bass in Tame Impala, and he currently leads the Australian psych-rock band Pond. Later this month, he’ll release Pure Gardiya, a solo album that seems likely to push his psychedelic ideas even further out there. We’ve posted his “Advance” video, and now he’s shared “A Fool There Was,” a dizzy piece of Syd Barrett-informed psychedelia with some truly crazy backwards-sounding guitar solos. Check it out below.

Pure Gardiya is out 5/27 on Spinning Top.
