Listen To Te Huhu's New Album 'Deelishis Herbs'

Chris Cudby / Friday 1st November, 2024 1:29PM

Sunny day outside in Tāmaki Makaurau, time to put on the new Te Huhu album Deelishis Herbs and be transported to a prismatic leafy world of "psychedelic stoner shoegaze blues country folk rock." Representing five years of song / sound-craft since their 2019 long player Recychedelia, the super city collective of Ben Mortensen, Cameron Willicott, Dave Weir, Mason Fairey and Samuel Smith foist ten blazing fresh tunes upon us — sporting a laid-back, questing spirit not unlike like an antipodean Amon Düül (Amon Düde?), or maybe the more mellow nooks of the Acid Mothers Temple back catalogue.

They snap into focus on Steve Gunn-adjacent recent SRN hit 'Skipping Stones', dreamy ballad 'All In My Head' could be lost late-period The Clean, 'Tūrangawaewae' sounds suitably regal and majestic, 'Huhu Dub' deeply reverberates through skulls, and 'On Holiday' makes this listener want to get back to paddling about crystalline lagoon waters, peering at tropical fish. Suitable for cranking on your boom box all summer long, dip your ears into Deelishis Herbs, order the vinyl LP edition / stylish merch HERE and don't miss Te Huhu on tour nationwide from tonight onwards, joined for most dates by Leonard Powell...
