[Awwa1]

@BUZZUBUZZU it's a natural high, man!

[Skatalitis]

@BUZZUBUZZU ok :D

[boggedmaffus]

Epic live - also check out Hookworms, they opened for the Shjips at Leeds this year and were equally good in a similar vein... maybe a bit more Stooges-y, but still bloody awesome!

[ELNITO2009]

bloody great ! rock it good ! thx for this post :)

[Quinnoco]

coooooooooooooooooooooool

[TANSD]

Psychedelic fuzz goodness, can anyone recommend me some more bands like this please!

[znubzz188]

@TANSD comets on fire, butthole surfers ch ch check it out!

[MrLuRob]

@TANSD

Listen to the early 70's krautrock era. Bands like Amon Duul II and Can (especially Mother sky - Can). It's a great collection of music.

[maclennan73]

@TANSD Spacemen 3, My Bloody Valentine, Suicide, 13th Floor Elevators, The Velvet Underground, Neu to name a few, enjoy.

[TheSilentAstronaut]

@maclennan73 you missed Loop and Moon Duo

[maclennan73]

@TANSD I forgot about the Silver Apples !!

[RMJSpacker]

LOVE IT!

[sbeebsy]

people on the internet are shit. i bet no one is this much of an arsehole in real life.

[perforce1]

i hope not, but people never cease to amaze me ;)

[Hew2406]

Wauw... I can see how some people can enjoy this music, but damn it must be boring to be the drummer of Wooden Shjips. :D

[thaerowe]

...or basist. Great band.

[Liibstaaa]

alex turners recommendation :)

[JuanKallot]

FUCK OFF

[Liibstaaa]

Sorry why?

[JuanKallot]

"Sorry why?"

If you're the first of the indie nme loving hordes to descend onto this truly passionate band then you can do one before you KingsofLeonise them.

If you're into it not just because Alex Turner gives some vague reference to them then listen on and enjoy.

[Liibstaaa]

Ohhh. Hahaha i thought this was some personal attack towards me? No i just heard he liked them and was looking for some new bands. such a crime?

[JuanKallot]

Not at all. Re-read my last post. x

[Liibstaaa]

Yeah i did :) just thought i would try them out. x

[perryboy58]

Hahahahaha CANCER

[s2holden]

i gave them a listen purely cause alex turner made a vague reference. and i think there a great band, so they have gained one fan from the very magazine your mocking.

[snakeweirdo]

Fans are stupid.

[s2holden]

and your american?

[snakeweirdo]

No, what has that got to do with anything?

[JuanKallot]

*You're

The NME is a fucking joke these days. Smash hits with guitars.

[Awwa1]

Great flashback to the 60's! I thought I saw Timothy Leary and Truman Capote among others. But it may have been my hazed-over mind! Be well.

Peace,

[manwvan]

every once in a while something comes up that makes me want to move back to California. These guys have been doing it for me since the very first time I heard them.

[motodude1]

fuckin awesome! you guys are channeling Loop!

[pinkville]

distorted guitar qawwali - ecstatic, wonderful!

[homer1205]

im in illinois  is the album out yet?

[mackb909]

Wooden shjips, you guys are good at psych/trance rock, sounds like a strong minimalist influence (is Philip Glass an influence?) Would like to know the band line-up: names, instruments played, etc.

[thisisforreal]

get off your ass and look them up.

[ForARide]

well, i´d say the Velvets have to be their biggest influence. a band with a similar sound are A Place To Burry Strangers, look uo their offical video of "My Weakness" posted by turbid. great video!

[protocol000]

this is like "free stoner rock" -- i get the same feeling from this that i get from a few sunroof! tracks, like columbus kisses. it's just cruising through your head.

[theblackempress]

Love it love it love it...

[spookypaw]

Best live band ever!!!

[ricv64]
