The Artist/Album: Wooden Shjips, West (Thrill Jockey, September 13th)
The Details: Like everything Ripley Johnson touches, Wooden Shjips’ first properly produced LP–as engineered by Trans Am co-founder Phil Manley and mastered by Spacemen 3’s Sonic Boom–is a profoundly psychedelic vision of what it’s like to live at the very bottom of a lava lamp. It also makes us want to get a speeding ticket in the middle of the desert at 4 a.m.
