Vodka and Ayahuasca

[alert]

I was looking around youtube for ayahuasca videos and came across this:
[youtube]

The group is Gangrene and their CD is called Vodka and Ayahuasca

 

[acacian]

such a beautiful album cover. keen for a listen

 

[Electric Kool-Aid]

Mixed reviews.... I guess aya is going to connect to a lot of people... Either that or just get banned all over the world...
Yup. Nice cover art for sure. But vodca and DMT doesnt mix. People are going to freak out!

I guess if you had to find a drink that would be the complete opposite of ayahuasca (other than both will make you puke if you drink too much), then it would probably be vodka. The album cover is really nice though.

I agree the two certainly don't have much in common. I am glad more people are learning about this medicine, but I question if there is any benefit in introducing the brew to people as if it is just another method of getting fucked up.

I doubt many will come back to aya just to get "fucked up." The brew has a way of regulating itself. Some may try it just because they want to trip and thinks it's like acid and get high, but I imagine that only happens once.

I'm sure you are right! I guess what I'm more worried about is the rough first experience someone could have if they went into drinking Aya without knowing anything about it, especially if they don't have previous experience with psychedelics. Also, since Aya has complications with certain foods and drugs it is not something that should be ventured into from a place of ignorance in my opinion. My guess is most people who go to all the effort of purchasing some vine and admixture and spend all day brewing it have researched it at least a little bit.

What a horrendous track. Had to turn it off after about 30 secs. Not sure I like the message either, that is surely a dangerous combination...

 

[ziggus]

Awesome cover. But then I clicked on the video.

 

[teaheadskvngr]

If you are unfamiliar with the stones throw label you might have more context. They have various 'acts' that are very heavily psychedelia influenced. It is after all art, DMT is already in the open. just my two cents.

 

[Walter D. Roy]

My question is. How are they driving if they are on so much aya and vodka? I'd probably be passed out haha

 

[rOm]

:roll:

this video doesn't show proactive insight, and responsibilitie...
a perfect exemple of reckless, and purely recreationnal usage.

 

[obliguhl]

Tons of shamans drink alcohol and even during ceremony.
Christian Rätsch also says, that a bit of alcohol brings back the ayahuasca visions after they faded away....

 

[arcanum]

OMG, a couple of crack heads decide to get effed up on booze and an entheogen, not a pretty site, ( or sound for that matter)

 

[demiourgos]

got to say strange video. don't think it's the right publicity that aya needs though very nice cover but thats just my view on it

 

[jamie]

I must say I dont like that music.

 

[daedaloops]

Not my type of music either, but I gotta say the first quarter of the video shows pretty well what ego disintegration feels like, you "hear" a sinister beat in the background while everything in your worldly apartment is banging and getting destroyed, until you're dead and a backdoor opens up into the hidden reality all around you.


Or... maybe they're just getting high on vodka and ayahuasca and driving around in a van. :roll:

 

[OomRa]

both artists as individuals are genius and as a duo they are just getting crazier.The Beat is crazy but the flow and rhymes aren't aren't catching my ear.The samples are mostly based on psychedelic rock thus the cover art is very much 60's psychdelia.I dont know if they are as knowledgeable about as most nexians or if they were just going with the "i don't give a fuck rock n roll attitude". The video pretty much makes no sense but it's fun to watch if your already a fan of there music.Sometimes you just want to like the art when you already love the artist.
