An opening track that, right from the opener This World Was Being Watched Closely, makes clear with an old sci-fi sample what direction the journey is taking.

With the over fifteen-minute Sun Spectre, the album unfolds its undisputed climax: an intergalactic trip on a ghost ship, oscillating between Hawkwind Drive and cosmic prog improvisation, before the title track The Magnifier closes the set with a touch of Syd Barrett-era Floyd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 8.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eMagnifier\u003c\/em\u003e shows Giöbia at the peak of their power, serving both the hard and tender moments of psychedelic music equally and was rightly celebrated as one of the highlights of 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 8.0pt;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eGiöbia are\u003cbr\u003eBazu – vocals, string instruments\u003cbr\u003eSaffo – organ, violin, vocals\u003cbr\u003eDetrjibass\u003cbr\u003eBetta – drums\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Giöbia","offers":[{"title":"jewel case clear tray 4 page booklet","offer_id":57028070211962,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/7814\/8730\/files\/Gioebia-Magnifier-Cover.webp?v=1779215622","url":"https:\/\/sulatron.com\/en\/products\/magnifier","provider":"Sulatron Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
