Wooden Shjips – “SOL ’07 (Pts. 1 & 2) ” – [Sick Thirst Records]

In advance of their highly anticipated debut full length on Holy Mountain, San Francisco???s Wooden Shjips tease us with this tasty 7??? single. Released in conjunction with Holy Mountain on the band???s own Sick Thirst imprint, this 7??? is limited to 500 copies and the proceeds from it will go to benefit the fine grassroots organization Food Not Bombs. This extended track ???SOL ???07??? stretches over both sides of the 7??? and is intended as a sonic commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the infamous ???Summer of Love???. It???s a respectable psych jam with droning organs, echoplexed vocals, and killer electric guitar leads being propelled by driving Krautrock rhythms. Now I???m fully primed for the debut full length – bring it on! DL
