Henge, the London based four piece, have been frying brains up and down the country for 18 months now. Combining Butthole Surfers mayhem and Jesus Lizard precession, this is pure psychedelic noise rock.
Their self-titled debut album comes across like a lost Amrep record, psychedelic in the true sense of altering perception and pushing the listener to the inner depths of the subconsciousness. It's acid fried, heavy and slow, something which Trance Syndicate head King Coffey would have snapped up for his label.
'Henge' is a dense, spiralling and succinct statement. Pulsating and throbbing; the guitar being a washing, white noise counterpoint to the pummelling rhythm section with the vocals pushing everything into the red. If you can imagine the rush of a acid trip combined with a collapsing sun you'll be somewhere close to the intensity of Henge.
'Henge' will be released on Monday 18th January 2016 on God Unknown Records.

This album is one ridiculously massive inundation of relentless, rampaging, punkish, riff-packed psychedelic noise. An acquired taste that tortures your taste buds until its flavour becomes delicious. muschiosauro

Well this is damn good. I’m struggling to describe it, but here goes: Birthday Party era Nick Cave arthouse post punk with a stoner rock vibe to the production. Whew!
The bass drives the music and there is considerable variety between the songs. They tag it as, among others, psychedelic rock, and while I’m not sure I hear it, this lines up nicely with other recent standout additions to my collection like Hochen, Dreamtime, and Black Rainbows, who also use that tag. So maybe it’s just me. Lute FP
