Prehistoric psych-rock quartet Bone Wars' release second single with animated video
​​​​
Bone Wars are a fearsome new psych rock quartet from Yorkshire. Named after a rivalry between two 1 9th century fossil hunters, if you're looking for trippy rock music that also scratches a paleontological itch you've unearthed the right specimen.
​
Emerging from the ‘musical ecosystem’ of Birds and Beasts Records, Bone Wars released their first single “Terrible Lizards” at the end of January which has had 17k plays and netted them thousands of monthly listeners on Spotify as well as attracting radio play and great reviews:
a whirlpool where energy rolls in an invisible wave and blows away everything around - Indie Dock Music
a bold statement, showcasing a band with vision, precision, and a knack for crafting immersive soundscapes - Click Roll Boom
an epic slab of psychy rock drenched in all the required guitar sounds, Eastern beats, way out keyboard runs and frenzied sonic climaxes - Local Sound Focus
Forward-thinking, fresh and familiar and soaked in lysergic trippiness, the perfect blend of occident and orient, eastern spice and western groove. - The Big Takeover - Dave Franklin
​
Next up in their evolution comes 'Lizard Hips' - a shorter and punkier outing than their debut showcasing a tight arrangement and pop chorus. The song is accompanied by a video of the song as recorded in the studio plus a psychedelic stop motion video using retro dinosaur toys.
​
Having recently smashed their first full length live show the band have another song recorded - an epic eight minute song with a spacey coda - and plan to record four tracks in one session over the summer. "We've eight songs written now and our experience jamming and improvising on stage, really exploring the possibilities of the sounds and songs we are creating makes us excited to get back into the studio and onto more stages."
