Customer Reviews of Indian War Whoop

Unique
What this is basically is unselfconcious psychedlia mixed with Bluegrass (which is just as noisy as that sounds), with a little touch of more standard "folk" stylings. You could take acid to this. You could square dance to it. You could play it to your buddies and laugh because it's pretty damn funny. You could probably turn Bluegrass fans onto it (although a modern country fan would not be an easy convert!). It's a novelty, sure, but it's also pretty damn good music. fans of the Byrds, or of the Fugs would appreciate this, I bet.

Psychedelic Folk Classic
This album is a breath of fresh air for the ears. Out of an era where musical boundaries were being pushed to the limits, this band led the way into new frontiers and remains one of the classics of psychedlia. I didn't know what to make of the music at first listen, but it gets better and better each time I hear it. In the midst of all the craziness are some of the most beautiful although slightly twisted tunes like Radar Blues and Sky Divers. I wouldn't trade this album for all of the top 100 cds currently out. Their next album, The Moray Eels Eat the Holy Modal Rounders is even better. Do yourself a favor and pick up both of these cds and hear what music was like before it became a product of big business and money replaced love of music as the motivation for releasing albums. <
