White Hills are proponents of psychedelia as transformation. The music made by Dave W. and Ego Sensation is risky and cutting edge, rooted in dystopian futurism and hyperconscious of society's constant desire for a new and better drug. That progressive aesthetic is at the heart of White Hills' newest album Walks For Motorists, a radically stripped-down record that emphasizes rhythm and groove. The album bursts forth with a new kind of intensity, one born out of laser-focused precision and detail-oriented songwriting. Possibly surprising to fans familiar with the Hawkwindian guitar squall of earlier albums, the songs on Walks For Motorists began as a keyboard melody or bass line, and several songs on the album don't even feature guitar at all. This is propulsive, open music, surreal to it's core but made to inspire people to get out of their seats and move. Walks For Motorists was recorded with David Wrench (Caribou, Bear in Heaven, FKA Twigs, Owen Pallet) at Bryn Derwen Recording Studio in Bethesda, Wales which borders the Snowdonia National Forest.The band had 24-hour access to the studio, which allowed them to work whenever inspiration struck. Wrench's expertise producing and mixing electronic music was an essential asset when perfecting the crisp tones heard throughout the record. This is the first album the band has recorded outside of New York City, and the vast, rolling Welsh landscape that surrounded the studio influenced the album's uncluttered sound. Walks For Motorists is also White Hills' most diverse album to date. Fuzzed-out rockers sit comfortably next to kraut-infused grooves, and there are more vocal contributions from Ego than ever before. White Hills has been developing an entirely new live set focusing on new music, and will be playing many major festivals in 2015, including Roadburn, Primavera, and ATP Iceland. As anyone who has seen the band knows, they can command stages both gargantuan and intimate, and are one of the most legendary live acts in psychedelic rock today.
"Walks For Motorists" is a CD release by the acclaimed psychedelic rock band White Hills, produced by Thrill Jockey. This album showcases White Hills' signature blend of fuzz-laden guitars, hypnotic rhythms, and expansive soundscapes that push the boundaries of modern psych-rock. The tracks on "Walks For Motorists" are both immersive and energetic, inviting listeners to embark on a sonic journey filled with dynamic shifts and atmospheric layers. White Hills have built an impressive reputation in the underground music scene for their relentless touring schedule and innovative approach to experimental rock.

They have collaborated with notable artists such as Oneida and Kid Millions, further cementing their status as pioneers within the genre. Over the years, they?ve released numerous albums through respected labels like Thrill Jockey?an independent record label based in Chicago renowned for its diverse roster spanning indie rock, electronic music, jazz, and experimental sounds. Thrill Jockey has been instrumental in supporting groundbreaking acts including Tortoise, The Sea & Cake, Future Islands, and many more.
