wildly psychedelic departure from the wry, drug-influenced folk blues of their first two folk albums, the Holy Modal Rounders's 1967 electric rock effort, INDIAN WAR WHOOP, is a delightfully strange anti-establishment effort. From the spoken-word opener "Jimmy and Crash Survey the Universe" (gleefully ripping apart the 1940s movie serials of the duo's youth) through eyebrow-raising tunes like "Cocaine Blues" and the left-wing political anthem "The IWW Song", INDIAN WAR WHOOP makes SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND sound like bubblegum. The 2008 reissue features superior remastered sound.|
