STARDEATH & White Dwarfs.jpg

Stardeath and White Dwarfs


Says Guardian UK's Paul Lester of the Oklahoma psychedelic rock at Stardeath and White Dwarfs in today's editions:

They're good. Really good. ...

You could call it psychedelic soul but that makes you think of the Temptations' circa Cloud Nine and that's not quite right. Cosmic country is closer but Gram Parsons this ain't – think more Band of Horses or My Morning Jacket if they were on 90s Warp. 'I Can't Get Away' is all mad fizzy synths and manic cartoon frenzy belying a serious, poignant message.

The buzz: "Stardeath & White Dwarfs' heavy, gods-hammering sound owes as much to sludgy prog-rock influences like King Crimson and Pink Floyd as it does to Uncle Wayne's oeuvre." Yep, he means Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne.

See the full article from Guardian UK online.
