Wet Hair, Naked On The Vague

Excellent split with Ryan Garbes and Shawn Reed’s Wet Hair delivering one of their most perfectly articulated runs of psychedelic pop narcosis with aspects of late Spacemen 3/Spectrum, Silver Apples, Boston garage, classic Kraut radiophonia and an approach to melodic song styles that has aspects of Woods. Naked On The Vague go back to their original duo line-up for their side, by far their most interesting set-up, with a darker/heavier Industrial aspect than on their recent Siltbreeze LP and a more satisfyingly crude and confusing take on male/female, fuzz organ and muzzy song environs. Parts of their side sound like a more malevolent take on the organ-led psych of Opal/Rain Parade et al. Sounds great. On clear vinyl.  (Volcanic Tongue)
