Oog Bogo have shared a second video, and title track, for their new album, “Cowgirls”, out this Friday. The album goes off-road, so buckle up, because with songwriter Kevin Boog (ex-Meatbodies) and engineer Eric Bauer behind the wheel of John Dwyer (The Osees) and Bauer’s studio, “Discount Mirrors”, anything can happen.
In March of last year, John Hodge stomped the four-to-the-floor on drums and percussion, as Boog swung back and forth between mutated melodies and total auditory annihilation, vocally and instrumentally. Together, the two swerved hazardously through several roads of smoldering sonic debris…
But where does this road lead now? Veering a sharp left turn off the course of Oog Bogo’s previous genres? Sure. A new, unmatched lineup consisting of Gabe Flores (on lead guitar/ backing vocals), Julian Betts (bass guitar) and Grant Snyder (drums)? Why, we’re glad you asked! Yes. Accelerating forward, Oog Bogo’s Wipers reject the sorrows of darkened skies that hover over Los Angeles. Monolithic guitar tones grind like freight Trux, flanking you in stereoscopic bliss, as bass metronomically demands your movement alongside their pounding percussive speedometer.
Oog Bogo’s harmonies of the lost highways weave you through LA, and siren to you an all-but-haunting message: that rock and roll is ALIVE… and now, with Oog Bogo’s second LP on In The Red Records, you’re in the front seat of their Chrome choir. Their momentum has only just begun. So don’t get the blues. Giddy-up.
