Feverish guitars collide with a punchy bass line and some minimalist, tight and effective drumming. Produced by Nicolas Vernhes (Deerhunter\/Silver Jews), Hinshelwood&#8217;s voice comes over distinctive and fuzzy-sweet &#8211; all dressed up in west coast style harmonies. Chords and melodies churn and crash together in kaleidoscopic waves, peaking like an acid trip &#8211; looping and swelling in pulsing repetition, heightening the sonic experience. It&#8217;s an addictive formula. All dynamic tension and eventually a sense of release by way of a quirky Syd Barrett-esque psych-noise freak out. When this musical genre is no longer flavour of the month, Dromes will still stand out for being really fucking good.<\/p>\n\n\n<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F75872033&visual=true\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul Baird<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From bands to festivals, psych is in vogue.
