Thee Oh Sees – Master's Bedroom Is Worth Spending A Night In (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
John Dwyer had already built a reputation as one of San Francisco's most restlessly prolific figures by the time Thee Oh Sees hit their stride, but *Master's Bedroom Is Worth Spending A Night In* captures the band at a pivotal moment, channeling raw garage energy and hazy psychedelia into something bracingly immediate. Released on In The Red, a label with deep roots in American lo-fi and garage rock, the album fits naturally alongside the label's legacy of uncompromising underground music.
Thee Oh Sees (OCS) began as songwriter / singer / guitarist John Dwyer's outlet for the experimental instrumentals he was producing in his home studio. 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 & Brown, Yikes, Dig That Body Up It's Alive, and Swords & 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 & 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.
