Vol. 2 (2019)

Strap in for travels beyond the galaxy, to tranced-out cosmic bliss! Sick Thirst presents Vol 2, the second compilation of hard-to-find Wooden Shjips tracks. Vol 2 digs deep to collect the band's Sub Pop and Mexican Summer singles, two self-released European tour singles, and a track from Yeti magazine, for nearly 44 minutes of fuzzed-out psych jams.

Not just for completists, Vol 2 contains the essential live standards ‘Loose Lips’, ‘Death's Not Your Friend (live)’, and ‘I Hear the Vibrations’ (the E-Z Version), plus savage covers of Neil Young's ‘Vampire Blues’ and Serge Gainsbourg's ‘Contact’.

There are hints of krautrock, the trance-inducing organ haze of Suicide, Velvets-style dance-drone, classic desert-fried garage psych and the mysterious, obscure Japanese lysergic-rock band Les Rallizes Denudes, all mixed into one explosive whole.
