Sydney, Australia psych explorers Turtle Skull hit a great hypnotic groove on this new track. There’s heavy and dark American desert psychedelia, streaked with a zoned-out English shoegaze vibe, particularly in the vocals. It lumbers and floats in equal weighty amounts, running the gamut from hard rock density to more ethereal overtones. Epic sounds abound.

“Why Do You Ask? was one of the first tracks from this album we came up with,” begins guitarist/vocalist Dean Mcleod. “In fact it came about just after we made the first record. It kind of heralded the move in direction of what would become album 2. And when we play it live it’s often a medley with another track called Leaves. Come see us live to find out! (laughs)”

 “The song is about communication breakdown,” adds drummer/vocalist Charlie Gradon. “It was actually born out of a joke jam Dean and I had, we were pretending to be a gnarly punk band singing ‘fuck you!’ As loud as we could in the middle of the suburbs – we quickly realised the energy in the riff was actually pretty good, so we stopped messing about and wrote it.“
