“Uncertainty”
by Sky Saxon and The Seeds
2004 song
On "Uncertainty" the fuzz guitar is impossibly fuzzy, a bolt of lightning from the garage where mad scientists are cooking up the foulest potions this side of the Los Angeles smog. The manic song is found on the 2004 album Red Planet, credited to Sky Saxon and The Seeds (but featuring only Sky from the 1960s group).
Over the ever-ascending riff, garlanded by a bright Farfisa organ, Sky lets loose with some lyrical delirium well-suited to match the band:
Uncertainty
In my head!
The effect is loopy. "Uncertainty" sounds more like a psychedelic garage rock band from the 1960s than did many actual bands of that era. Not only do these ersatz Seeds produce something majestic on "Uncertainty" but it’s new and gloriously explosive rather than dated and staid.
