White Hills is an American psychedelic rock band that was formed in 2003 in New York City. Founding members Dave W. (guitar & vocals) and Ego Sensation (bass, drums & vocals) have been the only constant members.

They have recorded over fifty releases including twelve full-length studio albums.[1] Their music strikes "a riveting balance between heaviness and ethereality"[2] combining elements of krautrock, post-punk, art rock, goth, psychedelic rock, metal, stoner rock, ambient and experimental music. They are often compared to Iggy Pop and the Stooges, Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, MC5 and Spiritualized.
