Hi everybody, just here to say our new RORY GALLAGHER HAWK BOOSTER is ready for shipping. Have a listen if you get a chance, All the best, Stevie Flynn.
"Lunes is a massive album of psychedelic drone and ambient metal. It's a heavy record, for sure." (No Quarter)
"This one's begging to shake your turntable." (Raven Sings the Blues)
"Lunes is one of those albums that bends your perception of time." (Sound Fix)
"A shamanistic psychedelic meditation through the desert." (Austin Sound)
"This is going to scare you so if you are alone, turn on the lights." (Too Cool to Die)
LUNES is the second album by the Texas psychedelic duo HEADDRESS. Written in the desert but recorded during an endless New York City winter, the album is a dark meditation on Americana. Guitarist Caleb Coy and organist Ethan Cook sculpt a cold, expansive sound made ripe for these turbulent times. It’s the blues shaped by the avant-compositions of La Monte Young and Dylan Carlson. It's drone rooted deep in the American tradition.
