The overall image of Revolver was Experimental Psychedelic Pop Rock in a sense. While recording the album, the Abbey Road team invented a revolutionary system for automatic double-tracking. When this occurred, it opened doors for more sound ideas to be blended and to have sound images overlap. The Beatles quickly fell in love with new technology and applied to the whole Revolver Album. On top of the experimenting the Beatles were doing on the Revolver album, Some also of the band members were experimenting with psychedelic drugs that would twist and give the music a totally new view on how people looked at music.
The Beatles revealing establishments in the recording studio reached its peak with the album's final track, “Tomorrow never comes”. The Song was very surprising to the Public because of the Phasers, flangers and harmonizers in the song. When I first heard the single it seemed like dream on LCD. Which in humor that’s what the song was suppose to sound like, from the lyrics to the actual music. I was also intrigued by the beginning of the record, and come to find out that it was a distorted guitar loops, while sped-up guitars and treated wine-glass percussion is what brought the songs sound.
The Beatles have been a major influence in my career as far as to how I look at the industry. As for the experimenting goes, I’m a little skeptical about the Psychedelic drug treatment for musically performance, even though it is much relevant for artist today taking up conventional drug use with their music. It is because of the Beatles, artist much like today are stepping out of the box with creativity. There are many ways you can get the attention of your audience, the Beatles choice to grab their attention and enlighten at the same time.
