So, I saw this young band from Chicago at a house concert a couple of weeks ago. They were very good and very cool and the show I saw was the 1st show of a 2 month tour all the way across the USA and back.
They don't sound anything like it, but if I had to describe them, they are a young, modern version of the kinda evil "Pawn Hearts" VDGG vibe mixed with proto prog psychedelia of the Vertigo label.
But that's just the vibe the music gives me; they aren't specifically 'retro' and they aren't trying to fool you into thinking this is lost lost music from 1971.

"...exists at the intersection of the free rock, avant garde, jazz and outre improvisation scenes which have long been a hallmark of Chicago's musical culture....Hushed whispers, damaged screams, sax, flute, searing guitar, unhinged drums, bent circuitry and more caravan through hypnotic freakouts, poetic lyrics and crushing feedback
