Thirty-nine years into their existence, the Anglo-Dutch troupe Legendary Pink Dots have willed themselves into a Grateful Dead–like entity, traveling the globe and releasing tons of studio and live recordings to a devoted cult following. LPD leader Edward Ka-Spel and long-time keyboardist Phil “the Silverman” Knight have honed a spacious, meandering strain of gothadelic rock that launches you onto spooky, Pink Floydian trips. Ka-Spel is more of a Lewis Carroll–like narrator than a singer, and his lugubrious tones contrast well with the eerie fantasy world conjured by the band. by Dave Segal
