psychedelic horseshit - half machine records

Well well well, it seems that the only way to hear a track from the psyche-shits new LP is to get this UK only single...god dam it! That's really ridiculous it's import only.
I understand the backlash against this sound, or even it being labeled right away, it is annoying
but I can't fault this sound. It exists in that borderline between experimental and pop. It's that middle ground that is an extension of sebadoh and every 4 track side project. I just know that when I put the needle down I have no idea where this is going. It fits into that history of america, the audio tinkerer in the garage on the weekends on this new invention. It could be completely ridiculous or change everything.
Like the frustration with non narrative film, you can get annoyed by not being able to follow the story, you have to give up that control in a way and just appreciate what's happening in front of you with no expectations. Psychedelic Horseshit, the whole shitgaze ship is forcing you to start in that place and let go.
New Wave Hippies is on their myspace, that's probably as close as I'm going to get to this. It might be cheaper do this.

Found it from Volcanic Tongue's review:

Episode 18 - Me and Matt play Kaputt from the too pure singles club... it gets a mixed review, Diet Cola, (I think a SIDS side project) again we split, and finally Cheveu (Matt calls them the French Ministry) ....we become completely speechless which I think was a good thing....for you!
