“Drop Out” White Hills

This way: Drop Out

White Hills is an American psychedelic rock band that was formed in 2003 in New York City. Founding members Dave W. (guitar and vocals) and Ego Sensation (bass, drums and vocals) have been the only constant members.

They have recorded over fifty releases including twelve full-length studio albums. Their music strikes "a riveting balance between heaviness and ethereality" combining elements of krautrock, post-punk, art rock, goth, psychedelic rock, metal, stoner rock, ambient and experimental music. They are often compared to Iggy Pop and the Stooges, Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, MC5 and Spiritualized.

The band's first album, No Game To Play, was a solo recording project by Dave W created in 2003 but not widely released until 2005 when Julian Cope issued a limited remix of the album as They've Got Blood Like We've Got Blood on his Fuck Off and Di label. Dave put together a three piece band composed of Ego Sensation on bass and Bob Bellomo on drums. In 2006, Julian Cope invited the band to open his show at KOKO in London.The band's next album Glitter Glamour Atrocity (self-released) garnered the attention of music journalists including Stewart Lee from the Sunday London Times and Pitchfork creating sudden visibility for the group.
