DC-based experimental collective Kohoutek plays improvised psychedelia,
ranging from unsettling, discordant noise to delicate melodies, inspired
by the likes of Can/Amon Duul 2/Agitation Free/Ash Ra Tempel/Krautrock,
Trad Gras Och Stenar/Parson Sound, Dead C, Skullflower, Sun City Girls,
Sonic Youth, Bardo Pond, Ghost/White Heaven/Japanese psych, Sun Ra/Art
Ensemble/free jazz, early Pink Floyd, MBV/shoegaze, drone, doom/sludge
metal, etc. Expansive Headache is the band's first official CD, following
two self-released recordings (Kohoutek and The Trails of Kohoutek),
Hair on the Sidewalk, a DVD/CDR on Sockets, and a collaborative CDR
with Soil Sing Through Me (members of Sunburned Hand of the Man/Feathers/Witch)
on Wabana.
