White Hills
Heavy, fuzzed-out space rock that feels like a high-speed chase through a nebula. Hypnotic rhythms meet unhinged guitar squall for a deep, psychedelic immersion.

White Hills, led by the core duo of Dave W. and Ego Sensation, represents the vanguard of modern American space rock.
Emerging from the New York City underground in the early 2000s, they successfully bridged the gap between the heavy psych of Hawkwind and the art-damaged intensity of the Stooges. Their sound identity is built on a foundation of motorik rhythms, heavy fuzz, and a 'more is more' approach to atmospheric layering. Over a prolific career spanning dozens of releases, they have evolved from pure psychedelic explorers into a more nuanced act that incorporates elements of industrial, goth, and post-punk. They are highly regarded in the international psych scene, frequently collaborating with members of the UK underground (such as Gnod) and appearing in Jim Jarmusch's film 'Only Lovers Left Alive,' which solidified their status as icons of 'cool' underground rock. Critical consensus highlights their live performances as essential, noted for their volume and immersive use of light and fog to create a sensory-overload experience.
