Wooden Shjips is the first studio album by space rock band Wooden Shjips. It was released in 2007 by Holy Mountain Records. [2]
The album relies less on distortion when compared to other albums by Wooden Shjips, though it still plays a large role. Despite being labeled as space rock, Wooden Shjips manages to maintain a very distinct sound compared to other space rockers such as Spacemen 3, Comets on Fire or The Flowers of Hell.

Post-rock is a form of experimental rock characterized by a focus on exploring textures and timbre over traditional rock song structures, chords, or riffs. Post-rock artists are often instrumental, typically combining rock instrumentation with electronics. The genre emerged within the indie and underground music scene of the 1980s and early 1990s. However, due to its abandonment of rock conventions, it often bears little resemblance musically to contemporary indie rock, borrowing instead from diverse sources including ambient, electronica, jazz, krautrock, dub, and minimalist classical.
