The Aloha Steamtrain is the third album by The Aloha Steamtrain and the first to be released by Rub Wrongways. This posthumous collection of songs harkens back to the psychedelic, harmony laden pop of their first effort - Girl Planet.

Lord Russ' powerful and beautiful voice propel these soundscape songs into other worlds, suggesting a fondness for Barrett, Ferry, Jones, Wilson, Gibb, Davies, Harrison, and Presley.

A monster of a band lies behind the music and invites you to take their journey into their swirly, decadent, and bewildering world. Nice job.
