Experimental collective emerge from their slumber...A truly remarkable group, *OOIOO* share common lineage with Boredoms.
Often compared and contrasted, in reality the two groups exist in their separate universes, with only the figure of Yoshimi P-We acting as an umbilical cord.
New album 'Gamel' will be released on June 30th, with Thrill Jockey once again providing the band with safe harbour.
It's a uniquely tribal experience, with the group's intense percussive ticks building up into a forest of cross-rhythms. Wordless vocals pile on top of one another, creating an enormous cathedral of chanting which sits somewhere between spiritual melody and the eternal groove of Krautrock.
Still wondering what we're on about? Well, Clash is able to premiere new track 'Jesso Testa'. A quite remarkable feast of noise, it pushes its way past mere language to grab hold of you by your emotional lapels.
