- all successfully - whether it's the Hawkwind versus Krautrock tug-of-war in EP opener 'Best Friends' which brilliantly dives into a Sabbatherian outro complete with extra trippy percussion or if it's the slow and lurching 'Sceptre,' summoning Red-era King Crimson with its ominous shifting time signatures with Eastern-tinged riffs that twist uneasily but resolve just in time before becoming sinister. It's a quick and compelling ride for fans of Black Mountain but who also might desire a more song-conscious path. --- Recommended if you like: King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Ty Segall or Thee Oh Sees
