Californian psychedelic rockers Marmalade Knives return with new album »Paradigm Lost«; out September 26th on Electric Valley Records!

Santa Cruz, California based psychedelic rockers Marmalade Knives are gearing up to release their second full-length album »Paradigm Lost« on September 26th, 2025 via Electric Valley Records.

Electric Valley Records is proud to announce the return of Marmalade Knives:

“Five years after their mind-expanding debut, the Santa Cruz-born psychedelic explorers are back with a new chapter. Marmalade Knives blend vintage psychedelia, cosmic vision, and progressive rock into a timeless sonic journey. Led by the visionary duo Clinton Wilkins and Adam Kriney, their sound draws from krautrock, jazz, and folk to create something truly unique.

We’re thrilled to welcome them back to the label for their long-awaited second album, stay tuned!”

Paradigm Lost, the long-awaited follow-up from bicoastal US psych rockers Marmalade Knives, is a majestic expression of contemporary progressive psychedelia and a musical ritual of absolution and uplift. There is a universe inside of Paradigm Lost. A sonic atmosphere and creative imagination into fantastical realms and ancient melodies long since forged, yet a reverberation and furtherance of the true progressive psychedelic source and knowledge into right now. A symphony of guitar overload and hard prog rhythms wandering across lanes of ambient lysergic fog into fields of jazzed-heavy rock and kraut-infused wizardry. Welcome, friend. Tread lightly, stay long.
