Probably their riot-sparking live show, right? Visions of a guitar-chewing, melody-maiming John Dwyer careening across your cranium, rounded out by a wild-eyed wrecking crew that drives every last hook home like it's a nail in the coffin of what you 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 to pin down since Dwyer launched the project in the late '90s as a solo break from such sorely missed underground bands as Pink and Brown and Coachwhips. Now, Thee Oh Sees chase the home-brewed symphonies of Castlemania with the scrappy, high-wire hooks of Carrion Crawler \/ The Dream. Originally envisioned as two EPs, it was cut live to tape in less than a week at Chris Woodhouse's Sacramento studio in June, reflecting the battering-ram bent of the band's live show better than any bootleg ever could. 'As I'm sure most would agree,' explains Dwyer, 'Castlemania was more of a vocal tirade. This one's meant to pummel and throb.' That it does, whether one blasts the slow, speaker-bruising build of 'The Dream,' the sunburnt organs and dovetailing guitars of 'Crack in Your Eye' or the interstellar instrumental 'Chem-Farmer,' a perfect example of what happens when one takes a well-oiled machine -- a gang of rabid road warriors, really -- and adds a second, groove-locked drum set to the mix. To listen is to realize that Dwyer's music is as manic as the underground comic inclinations of his artwork; colorful and confusing in a way that's more than welcome. It's downright refreshing, like a slap in the face at 5:00 in the morning. Or, as Dwyer puts it, 'You have to leave a mark somehow.'\" - In The Red Recordings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2011 full-length from John Dwyer's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct\u0026amp;q=Oh+Sees\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eOh Sees\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emagenta colored vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eincludes printed insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elimited edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 2011\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: In The Red Recordings 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e.","brand":"Thee Oh Sees","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":57431610982731,"sku":"lp-12948","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/6169\/9915\/files\/theeohsees-carrioncrawler-coloredvinyl-1.jpg?v=1779697260","url":"https:\/\/vinylvintage.shop\/products\/thee-oh-sees-carrion-crawler-the-dream-colored-vinyl-vinyl-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
