Psych-punk psychic warrior, ear worm-farmer, and possessor of many stamped passport pages John Dwyer does not let up. His group OSEES (aka THEE OH SEES, OCS, THE OH SEES, OH SEES, etc) have transmogrified to fit many a moment - from hushed druggy folk to groovy demonic pop chants to science fictional krautrock expanse and beyond - to suit his omnivorous whims.
OSEES was formed in San Francisco, California in 1997, now based in Los Angeles, California. The band currently consists of primary songwriter and core member John Dwyer (vocals, guitar), Tim Hellman (bass), Dan Rincon (drums), Paul Quattrone (drums) and Tomas Dolas (keyboards). OSEES sound incorporates a wide range of rock genres, including 1960s garage rock and psychedelic rock, punk rock, noise rock, art punk, and 1980s post-punk.
As JPD on the record company Castle Face Records decribed the new record "Panther Rotate"
In the swirling & undulant warm mud of jettisoned reels of magnetic tape, blurps up the fog of reinvention.
Every night I would parley with my pilots and run and rerun the recordings.
Right up until the moment sleep slips its veil over eyes and ears
and you drift back without a sound.
Protean Threat dream haze becomes Panther Rotate in the other dimension.
A companion LP of remixes, field recordings, and sonic experiments using all sounds generated by the hum and crackle of the desert farm.
A second version of our “Protean Threat” if you will, but barely conspicuous in its relation.
Forward, never straight! Sunrise, sunset. Two lives connected by a cosmic thread, One for your feet and one for your head.
Today's tune "Scramble Experiment" is taken from "Panther Rotate", released December 11, 2020, enjoy!
