Our Take

The latest offering from cult favorite psych-rockers Oh Sees, Orc, is a mind-bending trip through the weird and wonderful world of frontman John Dwyer. From the moment the opening track "Static God" kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Dwyer's relentless energy and penchant for sonic experimentation are on full display here, with each track taking unexpected twists and turns that will leave you both exhilarated and slightly disoriented.

The band's trademark heavy riffs and propulsive rhythms are present throughout Orc, but there's a newfound sense of focus and precision that sets this album apart from their previous work. Tracks like "Jettisoned" and "Paranoise" showcase Dwyer's effortless ability to blend garage rock grit with psychedelic flourishes, creating a sound that is uniquely their own.

But what truly sets Orc apart is its sheer audacity. From the sprawling, seven-minute epic "Raw Optics" to the relentless assault of "Animated Violence," Oh Sees don't hold back for a single moment. This is a band at the height of their powers, unafraid to push the boundaries of their sound and take risks that lesser bands would never dare.

In short, Orc is a thrilling and disorienting rollercoaster of an album that cements Oh Sees' status as one of the most vital and innovative bands in the psych-rock scene today. Strap in, hold on tight, and prepare to have your mind blown.

About the artist

Thee Oh Sees

Oh Sees, formerly known as Thee Oh Sees, is the brainchild of the ever-prolific John Dwyer, a man who seems to have an infinite supply of fuzzy riffs and psychedelic jams up his sleeve. Hailing from San Francisco, this psych-rock band has been consistently churning out mind-bending tunes since the early 2000s, earning a dedicated following with each release. With a discography that reads like a love letter to distortion pedals and reverb-soaked vocals, Oh Sees have a knack for blending garage rock grit with expansive, trippy soundscapes that transport listeners to another dimension. Their live shows are a whirlwind of energy and noise, with Dwyer leading the charge on guitar and vocals, backed by a tight-knit group of musicians who know how to keep the groove going all night long. Despite going through multiple lineup changes over the years, Oh Sees have never lost their edge or their sense of experimentation. Whether they're delving into motorik rhythms or indulging in a fuzz-fueled rampage, this band knows how to keep their fans on their toes, never quite knowing what sonic journey they'll take them on next. In a music landscape that's constantly evolving, Oh Sees remain a beacon of weirdness and wonder, reminding us that rock 'n' roll is alive and kicking, and in their hands, it's as vibrant and vital as ever. So grab your headphones, buckle up, and get ready to dive headfirst into the sonic maelstrom that is Oh Sees.
