Awash in fuzz boxes and acid trips, the dozens of other overlooked groups from the psychedelic
era bear little resemblance to Silmaril. While others buzzed within the hippie epicenters of Haight
Street and the Lower East Side, Silmaril formed in haunted, industrial Milwaukee. Other bands
might have met at a love-in; Silmaril were friends from a Catholic youth retreat bound together by
a doomed figure in the eccentric madman tradition of Syd Barrett, Roy Harper and Mel Lyman by
the name of Matthew Peregrine.

The Voyage of Icarus

captures the dark, mysterious, and achingly beautiful acid folk & Christian

themed psychedelic sounds that emanated from 1973’s highly collectable privately pressed album,

Given Time... Or the Several Roads

, and their dormant, unreleased follow up

No Mirrored Temple
