The sound of massed guitars. Brooklyn's Oneida's latest album Success, kicks off as if it wants to be The Wedding Present and that means The Velvet Underground and What Goes On particularly. Then they scuzz it up, Sonic Youth come into play. Opener Beat Me to the Punch is a great start to my weekend.
From there they go early Seventies. Stoner. There are the kind of sounds that might appeal to fans of Oh Sees who I notice are back with a new record as Thee Oh Sees which I'll need to give a listen. Not all of Success is a success for me. But they happily plough their dystopic furrow.
