Wand(US)

Wand

Anyone who lives and works in Los Angeles is quickly compared to the big and well-known names in the scene. We humans just love comparisons, we love to categorize things, it helps us understand.

If you try to categorize the band Wand, however, it feels like you get smacked in the face with every new release. After intense years of garage rock, proto metal and fuzz psychedelic, Wand have created a sound that defies categorization over the last few years.

Somewhere between the heavy urgency of Radiohead, the instrumental-ambient sounds of Tortoise and jazzy-krautrock elements à la Can, Wand are rocking through their own world. A world that keeps asking your heart and head to forget what you've learned and start all over again.
