Hark! A sonar blip from beneath the pile of bodies-the latest Oh Sees, Face Stabber! Boop, blip, ughhh... people churning like a boiling swamp. Man, this din is nauseating. The screen flickers for the first time this year with a transmission from two months in the future: \"the internet has deemed guitar music dead and you are free to do whatever the fuck you like... long live the new flesh!\" This album is Soundcloud hip-hop reversed, a far flung nemesis of contemporary country and flaccid algorithmic pop-barf. No songs about money or love are floating in the ether. Just memories, echoes, foggy blurs, blip-blop goes the scope, heavy funk, dystopia-punk canons, long jams, bloated solos dribbling down your caved-in chest. Human cattle like a beef avalanche, right on your burned out face hole. Spider-legs fuzz crawling in your brain. Lots of curse words for your mom. You've gotten the over-population blues, so let's have some art for art's sake. What else are you gonna do? Stare at the sky? Please... fifty carbon copies of you look back at you as you walk the streets. Take a breath, you're going to need it. Take drugs, you're going to need those just to stand in line at the air and water reclamation center soon enough. There's no fruit, buddy. You're at the bleak-peak. They will squeeze you till you're all squeezed out. Or fans of fried prog burn-out, squished old-school drool, double drums, lead weight bass, wizard keys (now with poison), old-ass guitar and horrible words with daft meanings. If you don't like it then don't listen, bub. Back to the comments section with you!

Probably their riot-sparking live show, right? Visions of a guitar-chewing, speaker-smothering, tongue-wagging John Dwyer careening across your cranium, chased by a wild-eyed wrecking crew that drives every last hook home like it's a nail in the coffin of what one thought it meant to make 21st century rock 'n' roll? Yeah, that sounds about right. But it misses a more important point-how impossible Thee Oh Sees have been been to pin down since Dwyer launched it in the late '90s as a solo break from such sorely missed underground bands as Pink and Brown and Coachwhips. That restlessness extends to everything from the towering, thirteen-minute title track of 2010's Warm Smile LP to the mercurial moods of 2008's the Master's Bedroom Is Worth Spending a Night In. And then there's the home-brewed symphonies of Castlemania and the high-wire hooks of Carrion Crawler \/ the Dream, which dropped a second drum set among sunburnt organs, dovetailing guitars and rail-jumping rhythms. If one prefers a slightly more subtle musical awakening, there's always Putrifiers II, the latest in a long line of Oh Sees albums that expands the group's sound well past your friendly neighborhood garage band. So while the space-odyssey nods of \"Wax Face\" actually sound like they're meant to melt one's ears straight off, the record's full of deviant detours, from the poison-tipped string parts and Eno-esque engineering of \"So Nice\" to the groove-locked Krautrock inclinations of \"Lupine Dominus.\" the most noticeable element may be Dwyer's melodies, however, as they reveal a softer side to his songwriting, one that makes perfect sense considering just how disparate his dust-clearing influences are. Scott Walker, the Velvet Underground, the Zombies and the experimental Japanese act Les Rallizes Denudes are but a small taste of what informed Thee Oh Sees this time around, as Dwyer returned to the multi-instrumental ways of Castlemania-full-band sessions for another record are already underway-and rounded out a fuller, drier sound with drummer \/ engineer Chris Woodhouse and special guests like Mikal Cronin (sax), Heidi Maureen Alexander (trumpet, vocals) and K Dylan Edrich (viola).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWax Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHang A Picture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSo Nice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCloud #1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlood\u0026amp;#39;s New Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePutrifiers II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill We Be Scared?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLupine Dominus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodnight Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWicked Park\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eUPC \u0026gt; 759718523515\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat \u0026gt; New Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel \u0026gt; In The Red Records\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShop online at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46974010425565,"sku":"759718523515","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/2033317.jpg?v=1762831944"},{"product_id":"thee-oh-sees-drop","title":"Thee Oh Sees- Drop (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eVinyl LP pressing. 2014 release from the California-based Indie band led by John P. Dwyer. This is their first album since the band moved from the Bay Area to Los Angeles. DROP was recorded in a banana-ripening warehouse (no joke) with hair-farming studio warlock Chris Woodhouse playing drums; it's also graced with the presence of talented gurus Mikal Cronin, Greer McGettrick and Casafis adding horns and vocals. The result pushes the familiar polarities of the group farther outward than ever before. Opener 'Penetrating Eye' might be the heaviest Oh Sees song yet, 'Transparent World' and 'Put Some Reverb on My Brother' foam with seasick fuzz, and yet the ballads, like the harpsichorded 'King's Nose' and the lush and stately closer 'The Lens,' extend their oeuvre into mellotronic, far-out pop with delicacy and grace.

Dwyer, who hails from Providence, RI, has been active on the San Francisco indie scene since the late '90s, working with the Coachwhips, Hospitals, Pink \u0026amp; Brown, Yikes, Dig That Body Up It's Alive, and Swords \u0026amp; Sandals, among others. He formed OCS (which is an acronym for Orinoka Crash Suite, Orange County Sound, or whatever Dwyer decided on any given day) to release a string of soundscapes and moody pieces that were decidedly lower key than his previous projects. In time, OCS morphed into an actual band, working under a flurry of names (most notably the Oh Sees or the Ohsees) and eventually settling on Thee Oh Sees. Sounding a bit like the Mamas \u0026amp; the Papas run through a seriously bent garage blender, this line-up features Dwyer on guitar and vocals, Brigid Dawson on vocals and tambourine, Petey Dammit on bass, and Mike Shoun on drums.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlock Of Ice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisit Colonel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrease 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGhost In The Trees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Drummers Disappear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGraveyard Drug Party\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Master's Bedroom (Is Worth Spending A Night In)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrease\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdult Acid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Coconut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaria Stacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoison Finger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Will See This Dog Before You Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuadrospazzed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKoka Kola Jungle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eUPC \u0026gt; 759718518719\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat \u0026gt; New Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel \u0026gt; In The Red Records\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShop online at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46974288888029,"sku":"759718518719","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/1604727.jpg?v=1762832740"},{"product_id":"thee-oh-sees-singles-collection-vol-three","title":"Thee Oh Sees- Singles Collection, Vol. Three (CD)","description":"\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUgly Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirls Who Smile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrushed Grass (Demo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurning Spear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat You Need\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFbi2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWait Let's Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways Flying\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevil Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlock Of Ice (Live At Sf Eagle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDestroyed Fortress \/ No Spell (Live At Death By Audio)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46983153189085,"sku":"819162014035","price":16.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/2396280.jpg?v=1762924840"},{"product_id":"thee-oh-sees-sucks-blood","title":"Thee Oh Sees- Sucks Blood (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e2007 album from the Alt-Rock band led by John Dwyer.

Probably their riot-sparking live show, right? Visions of a guitar-chewing, speaker-smothering, tongue-wagging John Dwyer careening across your cranium, chased by a wild-eyed wrecking crew that drives every last hook home like it's a nail in the coffin of what one thought it meant to make 21st century rock 'n' roll? Yeah, that sounds about right. But it misses a more important point-how impossible Thee Oh Sees have been been to pin down since Dwyer launched it in the late '90s as a solo break from such sorely missed underground bands as Pink and Brown and Coachwhips. That restlessness extends to everything from the towering, thirteen-minute title track of 2010's Warm Smile LP to the mercurial moods of 2008's the Master's Bedroom Is Worth Spending a Night In. And then there's the home-brewed symphonies of Castlemania and the high-wire hooks of Carrion Crawler \/ the Dream, which dropped a second drum set among sunburnt organs, dovetailing guitars and rail-jumping rhythms. If one prefers a slightly more subtle musical awakening, there's always Putrifiers II, the latest in a long line of Oh Sees albums that expands the group's sound well past your friendly neighborhood garage band. So while the space-odyssey nods of \"Wax Face\" actually sound like they're meant to melt one's ears straight off, the record's full of deviant detours, from the poison-tipped string parts and Eno-esque engineering of \"So Nice\" to the groove-locked Krautrock inclinations of \"Lupine Dominus.\" the most noticeable element may be Dwyer's melodies, however, as they reveal a softer side to his songwriting, one that makes perfect sense considering just how disparate his dust-clearing influences are. Scott Walker, the Velvet Underground, the Zombies and the experimental Japanese act Les Rallizes Denudes are but a small taste of what informed Thee Oh Sees this time around, as Dwyer returned to the multi-instrumental ways of Castlemania-full-band sessions for another record are already underway-and rounded out a fuller, drier sound with drummer \/ engineer Chris Woodhouse and special guests like Mikal Cronin (sax), Heidi Maureen Alexander (trumpet, vocals) and K Dylan Edrich (viola).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWax Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHang A Picture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSo Nice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCloud #1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlood's New Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePutrifiers II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill We Be Scared?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLupine Dominus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodnight Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWicked Park\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46986289053917,"sku":"759718523522","price":16.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/2033316.jpg?v=1762930752"},{"product_id":"thee-oh-sees-an-odd-entrances","title":"Thee Oh Sees- An Odd Entrances (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the same misty mountaintop tape spool as August's A Weird Exits, Thee Oh Sees bring the companion album An Odd Entrances.

Lurking in the grass are a snake or two, like the celestial facing instrumental buzz of \"Unwrap The Fiend Pt. 1.\"...

Bands that pay no attention to little inconveniences like \"release cycles\" or \"self-editing,\" and instead decide that quantity equals quality, creating a discography more labyrinthine, imposing and-ultimately-exhausting than the cast of creatures in a sci-fi novel. Here is why none of that applies to THEE OH SEES. Because each of the dozen-plus albums they've released since 2004 possesses a distinct personality and represents a different point along the path of JOHN DWYER's slow transformation from auteur of woozy, bare-bones four-track psychedelia to goggle-eyed garage rock marauder backed at long last by a band that both shares and stokes his singular vision. Because drop a needle on any record and-to their great credit-it takes several songs before you're convinced it's Thee Oh Sees. The seasick hundred-bottles-of-rum shanty \"What the Driven Drink,\" from 2007's delirious Sucks Blood exists in a different galaxy than the rollercoastering \"Chem-Farmer\" from last year's Carrion Crawler \/ The Dream; the doomy doo-wop of \"Blood on the Deck\" hardly seems like the product of the same band that delivered the yelping \"Ruby Go Home\" in 2009.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Come from the Mountain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToe Cutter \/ Thumb Buster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe Floating Coffin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Spell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrawberries 1+2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaze Fancier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNight Crawler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweets Helicopter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTunnel Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinotaur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eUPC \u0026gt; 657628452409\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat \u0026gt; New Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel \u0026gt; Deathgod Corp\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShop online at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47541776679133,"sku":"657628452409","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4420547-3382227.jpg?v=1772602315"}],"url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/collections\/thee-oh-sees.oembed","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
