Osees – Off Course (CD)
Product Details
John Dwyer has kept Osees in near-constant motion for two decades, releasing albums at a pace that would exhaust most bands while somehow never losing the live-wire urgency that makes the group essential. The San Francisco outfit built its reputation on stage, where extended improvisations and punishing volume turned casual listeners into true believers, and that jamming instinct has always fed directly back into the records.
We went back to an older method of writing for this one. We jammed and jammed and jammed. I took the tapes home and ironed out some mutant tunes. We went back into the studio and burned them to tape live and then I took it home to Stu-Stu-Studio and did the vocals and bought in Tom Dolas & Brigid Dawson to put the finish on. Spice is always nice. Mixed it all up in the cauldron and thus we have a strange brew indeed. Floating in the smoke we have: a couple long jams, a couple short jams and a finale that'll dump a bucket of ear worms on you (reminiscent of "the axis"?). Dip your toe in organ rock and roll. So without further ado, we present to you "OFF COURSE," an album wondering where the fuck are we and how did we get here. A signal dispatched out into the darkness. We are here. We are alive. And we are together. CHEERS NO EARS, JPD/DG/Osees.
