The second album by this Texas psychedelic duo follows their self-released debut "Turquoise". "Lunes" was written in the desert, but recorded during an endless NYC winter, resulting in a dark meditation on Americana. It's the blues shaped by the avant compositions of La Monte Young and Dylan Carlson. It's drone rooted deep in the American tradition. Vinyl is limited to 1,000 copies and includes an MP3 download card. RIYL: drone (Earth, Growing) and modern psychedelic (Brightblack Morning Light).

fractile music
"Lunes" by Headdress is an interesting and logical direction for post-Earth's "Hex: Printing in the Infernal Method" drone music. The album is minimal and blues based with sparse vocals in the third piece. The cover art reminds one of a fractile tesselation that many an adventurer has born witness to while under the influence of a hallucinogen. The second track, "Tip of the Pyramid" contains a fuzzy distortion reminiscent of a Japanese "Zero" engine from the Pacific theatre of WWII. This comes highly recommended for anyone interested in the shoegazing potentials of drone. Road trip through the Mojave, sun setting, driving South, road and sky deliquescing into vortex of Pluto and Hell. That is the sentiment engendered from this album by this band. Oh, and it cures herpes too (that's what my mom says, anyway!)
