When anyone asks what's going on in San Francisco these days, I hold up a
Sic Alps record and say "This shit, right here". Since the two-piece membership solidified a couple years back, the Sic Alps sound has evolved steadily over a barrage of releases. One part loose lo-fi minimalism, one part West Coast experimentalism, one part impish Syd Barrett-y weirdness and whole heaping fuckload of rock and roll. Their latest, the limited, vinyl only
Description Of The Harbor 12" is a must if you can still find it, if for the hand printed Chris Johanson artwork alone. Look for something new on the legendary
Siltbreeze label soon.
