John Dwyer and Osees continue on their interminable exploration of their gonzo-garage synth-punk minds on new album Intercepted Message. The 27th OSEES album is their most synthheavy yet, but those Blurt-like grooves are still in place and the songwriting is still tight as a gnat’s chuff on a record that in typical Osees style ranges all over the shop from new wave to skronk to punk to disco.

These electronic tones are combined and mixed again with YoshimiO’s live sounds in […]

Water Damage are a Texas-based drone supergroup of sorts. Recording for Gerard Cosloy’s 12XU imprint, the band brings together Mari Maurice aka More Eaze, Thor Harris (formerly of Swans and a billion other things), and members of bands such as Spray Paint, USA/Mexico, Marriage, and Black Eyes.
