Thin White Rope - Ring
Copping their name from ***[William S. Burroughs](https://cutt.ly/knKjvcv)*** euphemism for ejaculation, ***"Thin White Rope"*** was founded in Davis, California in 1984. Although the time and place of their formation aligned them with both the Paisley Underground and roots rock movements, the group quickly staked out its own musical territory, divining their own unique brand of dark, surreal, desert rock.
***"Thin White Rope"*** was led by singer/guitarist ***[Guy Kyser](https://cutt.ly/UnHksbT)***, whose harsh, tightly coiled vocals and unsettling lyrics combined to give the band its edge; in the group's first incarnation, Kyser was joined by guitarist ***[Roger Kunkel](https://cutt.ly/ynHkhgk)***, bassist ***Kevin Staydohar*** (soon replaced by ***Steven Tesluk***), and drummer ***Jozef Becker***.

***"In The Spanish Cave"*** (also known as ***"Captain Long Brown Finger In The Spanish Cave"***) is the band's third full-length album, released in 1988. under the ***"Demon Records"***.

Years before bands like ***"[Grant Lee Buffalo](https://cutt.ly/Rmqbaog)"*** and ***"[16 Horsepower](https://cutt.ly/pmqbgSK)"*** were doing their brand of ghost town music, ***TWR*** were doing similar stuff drawing from the ***"[The Velvet Underground](https://cutt.ly/Umqbzrl)"*** and ***"[Television](https://cutt.ly/4mqbb0I)"*** with a bit of ***"[Lee Hazlewood](https://cutt.ly/zmqbW19)"*** thrown in.
Singer/guitarist ***Guy Kyser*** sounds like he eats cigarettes and drinks like a fish with a growl that is not radio friendly and not easy to get into at first.

Compared to the first two this one is more open, less claustrophobic and even their wicked sense of humour gets more space to breathe here. But yes, this is more rootsy americana than chilling psychedelia, something perfectly embodied by the rolling, countryesque opener ***"Mr Limpet"***...

***”Ring”*** is the eighth song on ***”Thin White Rope”*** third album, ***"[In The Spanish Cave](https://cutt.ly/5murxJY)"***, released in 1988. under the ***"Demon Records"***.
