Record of the Month: Cory Hanson - Western Cum

Record of the Month: Cory Hanson - Western Cum

Our sixth Record of the Month for 2023 is Western Cum, a country-tinged scorcher from Cory Hanson.


Western Cum is the third solo LP from Hanson, the inimitable vocalist and leader of the excellent LA psychedelic rock band Wand. Whereas his first two solo efforts felt like estranged Wand cousins, there is a big old bold step into country psych pastures on this new solo set.

If you do nothing else today, you have to check out the nightmare-inducing Housefly claymation music video from Sean McAnulty!

Watch | "Housefly"



There is a real Jim O’Rourke-esque sparkle to the guitar riffs (a label mate on Drag City of course), and dynamically the songs are as engaging when they are whispered and cooed as when they are rocked and wailed.

Watch | "Horsebait Sabotage"



The way he leans on the country tones is just fantastic, a sort of loose frame to jump off into some gorgeously melodic balladeering and trippy walls of guitar cruisers. A great set of songs that all sit together impeccably and highlight what a fantastic vocalist he is. Subtle but arresting, this one will get you hooked, it certainly has us!
