Religous Knives avoid the dull haze of the scene by making it clear that Religious Knives are, first and foremost, a psych-rock band. Rather than use the tag as window-dressing to justify abstract noodling or as a means to convey a vague sense of purpose, the Knives, contrary to their label's moniker and the bulk of its roster, actually seem to enjoy applying force to atmosphere.
