Thee Oh Sees:

Sunday, May 30th, 2010

Opening your album with a 14 minute song that takes up the entire first side of a 12″ vinyl seems quite ballsy, but if there’s balls in Orange County, Thee Oh See’s have got ‘em. The first track Warm Slime is far beyond what I could have expected, fuzzed out almost past audio recognition building a repetitive chorus of “I believe in the summer time…” which probably takes up 3/4 of the song. Declining and building again in an almost post-rock fashion. But hold fast avid reader, by no means does this every get boring or tedious. More so it feels like your brain is bursting from the inside out. The entire album, as short as it is, is a constant blitz of insanely catchy psych-thrash. Incredibly noisy in a way that makes the geese under your skin stand up, dance and die.  Driving, like a Camero barreling down Hi-way 66. Enchanting like some fucked up voodoo you cant quite grasp. Dig these mp3′s below but do yourself a favor and pick up the clear and orange marbled vinyl, it’s super cheap and needs to heard in that format.
