Album lore

Western Flier by Hapshash & The Coloured Coat emerged on Brownbeats Records in August 2011, threading together strands of psychedelic rock, krautrock, acid rock, and stoner metal. The album unfolds across ten tracks, including “The Wall,” a featured piece that exemplifies the group’s penchant for sprawling, experimental arrangements rooted in 60s folk and psychedelic traditions. The record channels the textures of its era, blending fuzzy guitars and motorik rhythms into an acid-tinged haze.Though a modern artifact, Western Flier reveals a lineage that nods to the psychedelic and folk-rock currents of the late 1960s, filtered through a contemporary lens. Tracks such as “Blue Narcissus” and “Chicken Run” further attest to the band’s commitment to deep, exploratory grooves that invite repeated excavation by crate-diggers and aficionados of hazy, genre-blurring excursions. The album’s modest listener base belies its rich resonance within the underground psychedelic canon.
