White Denim, 'D'

prev 46/50 next

These tripped-out Texans riff le through indie rock, psych blues, punk country and hippie boogie in hard-driving punk-pastoral garage jams. But their great fourth disc never feels jumbled – they're far too busy high-tailing it to the next inspired mash-up to get bogged down.
