We are nearing the end of CutTime but we’re not done just yet! Meet the latest band, HypnoLoveWheel, an American Indie rock-band from Long Island. Guitarist Dave Ramirez, who later played with Dump also played occasionally with CutTime’s King Missile.
According to allmusic.com, Hypnolovewheel issued several albums in the late ’80s and early ’90s that offered a distinctive blend of power pop, dreamy psychedelia, noisy ’60s-style garage rock, and tense, nervy post-punk. Consisting of guitarists Steve Hunking and Dave Ramirez, bassist Dan Cuddy, and drummer Peter Walsh, Hypnolovewheel debuted in 1988 with Turn! Turn! Burn!, which was released on the small Fabian Aural Products label; the same was true of its 1990 follow-up, Candy Mantra. The group got a bit more exposure after moving to the somewhat higher-profile indie Alias Records, for whom they debuted with 1991’s well-received Space Mountain which includes this single, “I Dream of Jeannie“.
Current bands featuring members of Hypnolovewheel include The Special Pillow, Dew-Claw, and Electrostim. Read up more info on the band here!
