Strap in for travels beyond the galaxy, to tranced-out cosmic bliss! Sick Thirst / Forte presents Vol 2, the second compilation of hard-to-find Wooden Shjips tracks. Wooden Shjips (Omar Ahsanuddin – drums, Dusty Jermier – bass, Nash Whalen – organ, Ripley Johnson – guitar) are a vital and refreshingly inspired trance rock quartet from San Francisco playing with concentrated ferocity!
“proof the San Francisco still throbs to the sound of spirited psychedelia” Mojo
“subteraenean cool….” Stool Pigeon
“unashamedly beardy and sweaty, but with a real focus on groove that a lot of modern day Kraut-peddlers are missing - or at least, can't pull off.” Fact Magazine
“Wooden Shjips generate manic, warped pulses of pop-rock that don't just make your ears bleed but get your toes tapping at the same time.” BBC online
