San Franciscan wierdos Wooden Shjips (trust me that is their real name and not a typo) are hugely influenced by the far-out, LSD induced experimentalism of psychedelia, with a small measure of prog rock excess thrown in for good luck. The lazy, hazy groove, fizzing, fuzzy guitars, pounding bass topped of with haunting half sung half spoken vocals is a blood relation of the glacial psych/garage rock of Crocodiles era Echo & The Bunnymen crossed with the sun-bleached tremolo-punk of Australia's The Scientistsand the nightmarish nursery rhyming of the solo Syd Barrett. There are hints of krautrock, the hammond organ haze of The Doors, Spacemen 3 style droning freak outs and the classic progressive psych of The Soft Machine. These influences congeal like blood on a day old wound on their self-titled Holy Mountain debut which quickly on the heels of the band's single on the legendary Sub Pop.
