Weirdly enough, there's a fine line between hippie and hesher. You saw Gimme Shelter, right? From the very beginning, the only thing that separated the acid heads from the hell's angels was pool cues and hats with teeth. Point of all this rambling is that Witch is a hippie/hesher orgy that blurs that fine line unrecognizable.

It makes perfect sense, considering that (as you already know) Witch is equal parts Dinosaur Jr and New England longhair collective, Feathers. And the sum of that equation is just as crusty and burly and exquisitely bummed out as you'd expect. To illustrate the range of their superstoner powers, we present "Eye" and "Sweet Sue."

"Eye" is a rager. Black Flag and Sabbath colliding on motorcycles and puking brains on the highway. "Sweet Sue" either just woke up or it's been up all night and -- now don't freak out about this -- it might kinda sound like a way tougher Candlebox. And we mean that in the best imaginable way. Apparently '70s + '90s = nowsies. Weeeeeeird!
