My Interests |

Music:Member Since: 7/4/2006Band Website: oibrecords.com Band Members: LONELY GHOSTS - is the brainchild of Tom Denney (guitarist and co-vocal extraordinaire in indie noise kids Help She Can't Swim). Exploring more avant-pop, electro and acoustic influences than Help She Can't Swim, Lonely Ghosts is an eclectic amalgamation of sounds all held together by his love for a pure 'pop' tune. Click here to purchase OIB Split Volume 1 feat. Lonely Ghosts Click here to purchase the Lonely Ghosts mini-album 'Don't Get Lost or Hurt' MEWGATZ - is one crazy bastard. Based out of an attic in the midlands and armed with an arsenal of home-made instruments and iBooks, Mewgatz makes delicate yet damaging electronica. Turning his electronic graveyard into a circuit-bending sanctuary, Mewgatz strips bare everything from 80s Casios to keytars and kids toys creating lo-fidelity introspective electronic ballads drenched in raw, passionate, and vulnerable emotion Click here to purchase OIB002: Mewgatz - Underfelt on limited 10" vinyl Mewgatz - Untitled full-length album due on OIB Records in early 2009 Click here for the Mewgatz artist page POPE JOAN - are a four-piece avant-pop band from Brighton, England. They create intricate blasts of Fugazi and Gang of Four inspired post-punk utalising ambient walls of processed guitar noise, furious drum lines and quirky 8-bit synth keyboards, all of which are underpinned by an incredibly demanding pop sensibility. "Brighton boys Pope Joan are a fantastic and quirky proposition indeed" - NME OIB006: Pope Joan - Hot Water, Lines and Rickety Machines (mini-album) due on OIB Records in September 2008 Click here for the Pope Joan artist page THE TUMBLEDOWN ESTATE - is a one-man avant-pop explosion, orchestrated by the indie-surf eccentric Jim Morrison (no, not /that/ one). Sounding frantic, passionate and off the wall one moment and chock full of over powering pop goodness the next, the Tumbledown Estate come on like Stephen Merritt and Of Montreal jamming out Blur tunes with the Bronx! Click here to purchase OIB Split Volume 1 feat. The Tumbledown Estate The Tumbledown Estate full-album 'Fuck Sweat and Tears' is due on OIB Records sometime in 2009 (if there isn't any surf!) Click here for the Tumbledown Estate artist page CASIOTONE FOR THE PAINFULLY ALONE - is the musical alias of American film school drop-out Owen Ashworth. Ashworth began his intricate ventures into abstract emotional music in 1997 and to date has produced 4 CFTPA albums that have defined a hybrid strain of raw, emotional and very homemade synth pop that is instantly recognisable as his own. Claustrophobic character studies shuddered with reverbed beats, blown-out chords and simple but infectious melodies, all layered beneath Ashworth's bittersweet lyrical odes to love lost. Click here to purchase OIB005: Casiotone for the Painfully Alone - Town Topic EP 7" MY DEVICE - Brighton's premier avant-pop pioneers My Device are a frantic power-trio who make controlled chaos full of grinding guitars, frenzied drums and thick pounding bass. It's pure indie-disco wrapped in multi-genre freak outs and walls of fuzz and feedback. Click here to purchase OIB001: My Device - Eat Lead/I Was Brave Today on limited colour vinyl SHIELD YOUR EYES - are a blues influenced post-rock band from Guildford featuring Toby Hayes on vocals and bass (ex-Meet Me In St. Louis) Stef Ketteringham on guitar and vocals and Eddy on drums. While influenced by Godspeed You Black Emperor!, Slint, and Zepplin, Shield Your Eyes manage to make a sound which is totally their own, due in part to having one of the greatest guitarists we’ve ever seen! Shield Your Eyes are without a doubt one of the most demanding and exciting bands on the British live circuit at the moment. Shield Your Eyes - Sound The Alarm 7" COMING SEPTEMBER 2008 PSEUDO NIPPON - Making mad-capped Japanese inspired hardcore J-pop, Pseudo Nippon is making music above and beyond anything we’ve heard in the electonica field. Imagine if Gay Against You or Squarepusher grew up in Japan, watched Manga all day long and only ate lucky charms, or as Pseudo Nippon himself describes his music “pop with pochinko and little beat make yes, eating in colourful”. Quite! Pseudo Nippon - EP 7" COMING SEPTEMBER 2008 BEST FWENDS - are two musical idiot savants from Austin Texas who make spazzy heavily punk-influenced electro-anti-pop, recorded during their most severe periods of sleep deprivation using a cheap computer and anything else that’s lying around them at the time. OIB Split Series Volume 3 feat Lovvers / Knyfe Hyts / The Death Set / Best Fwends COMING OCTOBER 2008 GAY AGAINST YOU - Recently described by /Fused/ magazine as "two subterranean creatures dressed in primary school P.E. kits, complete with charcoal-stained eyes and badly-concealed erections", Gay Against You make aggressive electronic spaz-core party music that's confrontational, demanding and very, very fun. Click here to purchase OIB Split Volume 1 feat. Gay Against You HALF-HANDED CLOUD - is an interesting phenomenon. John Ringhofer, the man behind the namesake, is as joyful and frugal as his music. An economical thinker, Ringhofer prefers the subway over a taxicab, is a recycler of plastic, a compulsive note-taker, and a habitual optimist. His complex and artistic music encapsulates his struggle to make sense of his life through an all-consuming search for God. Half-handed Cloud is able to ensconce complicated theological concepts into playful avant-pop songs without condescending to his subject or to his listener. OIB Split Series Volume 2 feat Half-Handed Cloud / SJ Esau / Suburban Kids With Biblical Names / Kopek COMING OCTOBER 2008 KOPEK - are an inspired post-rock collective from Brighton England. Musically Kopek are a delicate and mesmerising band that blend the percusive ideals of Tortoise with the intricate and textural guitar harmonies of Earth and the electronic creativeness of Matmos. OIB Split Series Volume 2 feat Half-Handed Cloud / SJ Esau / Suburban Kids With Biblical Names / Kopek COMING OCTOBER 2008 KNYFE HYTS - During the writing process for the eagerly awaited new Ex Models album, Zach and Shahin ended up inadvertently writing a bunch of gnarly post-stoner rock jams. Deciding that they weren’t quite right for Ex Models, Zach and Shahin teamed up with their old buddies from Pterodactyl and Oneida to form the more pure hypnotic rock band KNYFE HYTS. OIB Split Series Volume 3 feat Lovvers / Knyfe Hyts / The Death Set / Best Fwends COMING OCTOBER 2008 LOVVERS - Hailing from Nottingham England, Lovvers are a bratish scuzzed up lo-fi dance-punk 4-piece that sound like the indie disco of your dreams, had the Strokes not fucked it all up 6 years ago. Imagine the Butthole Suffers jamming with the Minutemen! OIB Split Series Volume 3 feat Lovvers / Knyfe Hyts / The Death Set / Best Fwends COMING OCTOBER 2008 MUNCH MUNCH - duo Tom Carrell and Richard Manber met while in Bristol and write songs on a laptop using whatever instruments they find lying around, including casios, Yamahas, glockenspiels, and ukuleles. Live, they enlist the help of friends Jack and Sarah, “creating something bolted together by a dyslexic Ikea enthusiast building a pop wardrobe. That or they’ve learned music from scribbled descriptions pushed under a cell door” (Venue Magazine). Click here to purchase OIB Split Volume 1 feat. Munch Munch SJ ESAU - Hailing from Bristol, SJ Esau was the first proper UK signing to the seminal US avant-rap label Anticon. His style is a patchwork of mashed-genres, from hip-hop to folk, all fused together through multi-layered instrumentation and his distinctive vocal delivery. OIB Split Series Volume 2 feat Half-Handed Cloud / SJ Esau / Suburban Kids With Biblical Names / Kopek COMING OCTOBER 2008 SUBURBAN KIDS WITH BIBLICAL NAMES - Named after a lyric from the track ‘people’ by the Silver Jews, Suburban Kids With Biblical Names are a twee electro-pop outfit that couldn’t be from anywhere else but Sweden! They make playful and extremely catchy pop music that is the perfect accompanyment to lost summer evenings. OIB Split Series Volume 2 feat Half-Handed Cloud / SJ Esau / Suburban Kids With Biblical Names / Kopek COMING OCTOBER 2008 THE DEATH SET - hail from Baltimore, Maryland, by way of the Gold Coast, Australia. Comprising Johnny Siera and Beau Velasco their 2008 debut ‘Worldwide’ (Counter Records) is 18 tracks and 25 relentless minutes of reckless electro-punk abandon. Heavily influenced by traditional punk bands such as Black Flag, Minor Threat, and Buzzcocks, The Death Set channel their ‘punk roots’ through their love for hip-hop beats, and mad-capped electronica. OIB Split Series Volume 3 feat Lovvers / Knyfe Hyts / The Death Set / Best Fwends COMING OCTOBER 2008 Influences: The O.I.B. Collective includes: Bootleg Al Jim Morrison Tom 'Soliloquy' Ginn Tom Denney Todd Jordan Russ Eke notable honorary membership: Jo and Joe of Lack Of Communication Sounds Like: the audio equivalent of swallowing sick Record Label: O.I.B.
