American instrumental stoner rock band formed in Morgantown, West Virginia in 1994. Long-running lineup centered on guitarist William Mecum and bassist Rich Mullins (died 2014). Distinguished by their primarily instrumental approach — most songs are numbered rather than titled.
Seven studio albums between the self-titled debut (1997) and Arch Stanton (2014). Best-known releases include Wild Wonderful Purgatory (1999) and Almost Heathen (2001). Released primarily on Roadrunner and Spinerock. The band has been intermittently active across multiple lineup changes.
