Wooden Shjips - Lazy Bones

Wooden Shjips, San Francisco's leading peddlers of psych, have a new album coming out this September on Thrill Jockey. After being around for more than five years, Wooden Shjips is finally releasing their first studio-recorded full-length, West. Produced by Phil Manley of Trans Am and mastered by the recently profiled Sonic Boom, the album's main theme is appropriately said to be “the American West, and all of the mythology, romanticism, and idealism that it embodies." Here's the first track to drop from the California expats' latest, "Lazy Bones." --Ric Leichtung,Altered Zones via Stereogum
