^ Thank you both for your answers and research. How about we go with Post-Stoner Psychedelic Acid-Funk Blues until something more grandiose occurs to us ?

^ I'd be curious if you have some examples you could mention of the top of your head. Also, does early Moondog count as American Primitivism I wonder? After all, a lot of his tempos come from native American Indian culture apparently.

Oh. Lol. No they're awesome. But I'm too engrossed in this album project to go out of my way to listen.

That title seems a bit redundant since most of those genres are heavily influenced by psychedelic rock.

Sir Richard Bishop and Bill Orcutt are a couplle of the best in the genre imo

^ Thanks. I should've guessed at Sir Richard Bishop, who I first heard of here, when stp/Stephen posted an album.

Bill Orcutt is new to me and I quite like his aggressive playing; will be exploring this guy furthur. Thanks.

Thought you might like Orcutt, he's pretty Beefheart inspired.

^ Thanks ! I thought there was a hint of Dali's Car or something in that Bill Orcutt track.
