The new Purling Hiss record “Water On Mars” is coming out via Drag City next week! Drag City gave us a taste in advance and now they’ve released a video for one of the stronger jams on the record “Mercury Retrograde.” On the whole, Water On Mars is another step in the more accessible direction for the Hiss, whose powerful psych rock is ever-evolving, and I for one am totally down. They’ve made this transition from gnarly, lo-fi swirling grunge to heavy, catchy, blown-out arena rock that reminds me of Nirvana at times but is still so true to the vibe these dudes provide that you don’t forget who you’re fuckin with. Quite enjoyable indeed. They will be in town APRIL 9th @O’Brien’s, plenty of time to get the record and be ready to sing along like a crazy person.
