Iowa's
Raccoo-Oo-Oon, the brainchild of Shawn Reed, dabbled in
dense tribal jazz-infected psychedelic rock with electronically-altered vocals, fuzzed guitars and gnomish synthesizers that seemed to sum up the 1970s of
Hawkwind, Gong, Neu and Faust via the Animal Collective.
Is Night People (2005),
Mythos Folkways Vol. 1 (Woodsist, 2006) and
The Cave Of Spirits Forever (2006) indulged in that
spastic fusion of new wave, garage-rock and jazzcore.
The rather aimless jams of Mythos Folkways Vol. III - Divination Night (Woodsist, 2007) diluted the idea whereas
Behold Secret Kingdom (Release The Bats, 2007) offered an even
denser and harder approach.
Mythos Folkways Vol. IV, Future Vision (2008) and
Mythos Folkways Vol. 5, Future Fusion (2008) were too self-indulgent.
After Raccoo-oo-oon disbanded,
Shawn Reed and Ryan Garbes formed Wet Hair (both on synths) that debuted with
Dream (Not Not Fun / Release The Bats, 2009).
