the boxing lesson’s wild streaks & windy days

austin, tx’s the boxing lesson brings the psychedelia, and i think i like it. only gotten into the lead track off their wild streaks and windy days, but its pretty righteous. if ya dig spiritualized/spacemen 3, pink floyd, swervedriver, etc you may find the boxing lesson to your liking.

morning, all. have a bunch of shit comin up later today, but i figured i would get this out of the way while i had a minute. way back in 95 oxford, mississippi’s blue mountain put out a little record called dog days. honestly, outside of my little group o’ friends i dont know anybody who has every heard of em, but amongst my clique its much revered. simply put, i dont think i have ever heard a better roots rock record. if you can find it, buy it or download via amazon.
