WHITE HILLS Heads On Fire (2009 US Thrill Jockey label 6-track vinyl LP issue of their 2007 album which was originally released by Rocket Recordings on CD only [until now]. Ever changing and always striving to push the envelope, 'Heads on Fire' finds the band playing a heavier style of spacerock as compared to their previous releases. Relentless and punishing, the album kicks off with the spacey swirl of the song 'Radiate' and ends with the speedladen blast of the track 'Eternity'. Along the way, a mesmerising blend of fuzz / wah guitar growl, pounding bass, sprawling synth, and chaotic drumming doses one's head three sheets to the wind. Whether it be the mere one minute track 'Return of Speed Toilet' or the 26 plus minute 'Don't Be Afraid', the listener will be taken on a ride through a world that is all encompassing from beginning to end. The vinyl looks barely played within its picture sleeve complete with a download code voucher and an A4 credit insert)
