Listen: Wooden Shjips – These Shadows (Acoustic)

As their new album approaches...

Wooden Shjips have just posted an acoustic version of 'These Shadows' – listen to it below.

A sprawling, West Coast collective, Wooden Shjips can justifiably point at the new breed of psychedelic groups are shout: "we invented you!"

Which, of course, they sort of did.

Working with Thrill Jockey, the band's back catalogue contains all manner of lysergic highs, downers and lengthy, raga-like dirges. It's a helluva trip, trust us.

New album 'Back To Land' is due to be released on November 11th (pre-order), with the band broadening their sound as never before. Sure, it's inherently psychedelic, but the colours, the hues, the outlines are stronger, more dynamic than ever before.

With the record fast incoming, Wooden Shjips have unveiled an acoustic version of 'These Shadows'. A languid, cough-syrup-slow hymn, you can listen to it below or but it HERE.

'Back To Land' is set to be released on November 11th.
