Description

Signed to Thrill Jockey Records, New York's White Hills are an intense psych rock band á la Hawkwind, combined with the fuzz of Mudhoney. "A label like 'space-rock' deserves music that's as nuanced and limitless-feeling as space, and space-rock deserves a band like White Hills. Not only do they add urgency to familiar psychedelic rock templates, but they pay just as close attention to the quiet moments as the raging ones -- each track on their self-titled Thrill Jockey debut displays a careful layering of sounds and atmospheres." --Pitchfork

"Heads On Fire throws down grungy distorted layers of sludge that relentlessly churn along. It's neither subtle nor pretty, but god damn it rocks. They take the space rock template and inject it with a battered fucked-up New York punk spirit." --Drowned In Sound
