Remove Records is proud to present you with an exclusive first listen to Straight Sex's psychedelic opus Hoitecathy. Reminiscent of King Gizzard, the Amherst Mass rockers raise the bar with a concept album that is lyrically sprawling and musically ambitious. On top of that, the album is packed with mind-altering grooves and trippy noises to keep you engaged all the way through. Hoitecathy is truly an epic follow up to the group's twin EP's Girl Kiss and Boy Kiss.
There are influences like Yes, Black Sabbath, Genesis, and even Rush creeping into this project, but also more fresh sounds from the likes of MGMT and Tame Impala all over this thing. Yet, Straight Sex's sound is completely original. The group's blazing riffs, surreal detours, and killer vocals all make for one hell of a listen!
We know that fans of Remove's garage and psych releases will dig this big time.
The record won't officially be out until April 3rd, but in the meantime, you can stream it right here:
