"The 13th Floor Elevators took psychedelia to a level no other band ever had. Their three studio albums, The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators, Easter Everywhere, and Bull of the Woods, form the sonic pyramid that is still the model for bands such as Primal Scream, Butthole Surfers, Clinic, the Djinns, and the Chesterfield Kings. In doing so, the music lives and reverberates, decade after decade."
