Our Take

HOLY MODAL ROUNDERS Indian War Whoopin is a wild ride through the psychedelic folk landscape, filled with eccentric characters and mind-bending musical twists. This album is a true trip, blending traditional folk elements with a healthy dose of whimsy and humor.

From the opening track, "Gonna Do It Right," to the closing notes of "Hesitation Blues," HOLY MODAL ROUNDERS take listeners on a journey through a world that is equal parts surreal and captivating. The duo's off-kilter harmonies and unconventional instrumentation create a sound that is uniquely their own, drawing in even the most skeptical of listeners.

Tracks like "Boobs a Lot" and "Bound to Lose" showcase the duo's irreverent sense of humor, while songs like "My Mind Capsized" and "Indian War Whoop" display their knack for storytelling and vivid imagery. Each song on the album is a mini adventure in itself, with unexpected twists and turns that keep listeners on their toes.

Overall, HOLY MODAL ROUNDERS Indian War Whoopin is a delightful romp through the weird and wonderful world of psychedelic folk music. With its quirky charm and infectious energy, this album is sure to put a smile on your face and a bounce in your step.
