Feather Float

Pronounced 'oh-oh-eye-oh-oh,' OOIOO follow up their debut album on Kill Rock Stars with the magnificent "Feather Float." With Yoshimi of Boredoms/Free Kitten on guitar and vocals, Kyoko on guitar and vocals, Maki on bass, and Yoshiko on drums, OOIOO recognize no one musical style but manage to touch on nearly all of them. New wave, no wave, pop, punk, electronic, trance -- it swirls organically in every direction. Like the Boredoms, there is a prevalent primal groove recurring throughout, yet it's so melodic in parts as to be almost accessible (for a Boredoms-related project, that is).
