Oneida
Brooklyn's genre-defying Oneida takes their primary cues from '60s garage and punk bands (especially MC5), but throw in plenty of heavy, bluesy '70s stoner rock (think Blue Cheer, Foghat, etc.), plus dashes of jerky synth pop, avant-garde jazz, and Krautrock. Originally featuring guitarist/vocalist Papa Crazy (aka PCRZ), keyboardist Bobby Matador (aka Fat Bobby), drummer Kid Millions, and bassist/guitarist Hanoi Jane (aka Baby Jane), the group made a name for itself in the New York area by virtue of its raucous live performances,...[more]

With their new full-length record, Brooklyn sons Oneida simply start where they left off with "Each One Teach One," their highly acclaimed and soon-to-be classic double CD and LP. But these purveyors of righteous noise and indignation never stop in the first place. Almost immediately after wrapping "Each One Teach One," they collaborated with the Liars on a split EP while touring both Europe and the United States. In the meantime, they also created "Secret Wars." Their trademark iterated and psych-tinged no [ read more ]

This is the double CD version of Oneida's already legendary double LP Each One Teach One, the first truly heavy psychedelic rock record of the new millennium, originally limited to 500 vinyl copies packaged in individually hand-screened packaging (released by Version City). Oneida, responsible for last yearΉs unstoppable rock opus "Anthem of the Moon," have dropped on the Earth nine extended, blown out new songs that reach far beyond the fairly concise bursts of noise and melody found on previous rec [ read more ]

Oneida came up with the idea for The Wedding in early 2001, and immediately began building the largest music box on the east coast of the United States. Built of plywood, salvaged marine pilings, industrial motor parts and over seventy saw blades, the hand-cranked behemoth was assembled in the warehouse loading dock that's also home to the Vale of Tears, Oneida's own recording studio. By hammering nails and spikes into the cylindrical pilings at carefully mapped intervals, and rotating the pilings th [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Comes with a coupon for an MP3 download! Oneida are critical darlings, have become ambassadors for Jagjaguwar, and are paying it forward with a label of their own (Brah Records). Consider them the bastard offspring of a Can/Suicide marriage; a band unafraid to pluck, tap, bend, synth, or crash their way to the various extremes of rock, pop, folk, and the avant-garde, and who brilliantly do so without alienating the respective fans of any of these genres.

There's an awful lot of "psychedelic" music around these days, mostly of the gentle, sprightly, cosmic nature. It has seemed to Oneida for the past couple years that the world has forgotten a huge part of the critical essence of the psychedelic experience: anxiety, dislocation, alienation, and half-formed terror. With "Anthem of the Moon," they're out to remind the world why psychedelia matters. Over the course of 13 months, Oneida made repeated journeys to an array of Colonial-era ruins in the woo [ read more ]

No band has been so praised for such a wide range of music over the last ten years than Brooklyn's Oneida. Nobody has come close to matching their output of dazzlingly creative, uncategorizable music. Psychedelia, minimalism, maximalism, one-step, infinitewave, blah blah blah blah...it's all there, all the time; and Happy New Year, the band's ten billionth album, is Oneida's zenith. Simultaneously the most eclectic and most coherent album they have yet released, Happy New Year flows flawlessl [ read more ]

We will concede this to the latte-sipping coffee table theorists of the world. When it comes to the small slice of pop culture called American rock music, a profound shift occurred when the National Minimum Drinking Age Act was signed into law on July 17, 1984 by Ronald Reagan. The rock farm leagues -- traditional rock and roll venues -- took a big hit in the nose, and ever since rock music has been less "substance-tial." Well, thank God for Oneida. With their third full-length record " Come On E [ read more ]

During the long and arduous meetings with the promotions arm of the Ace Fu Syndicate, the members of ONEIDA got into a heated pissing contest with their management and the suits from promo about the title of their new release. ONEIDA wanted to call the record "Friends" in testament to the epic three year process of therapy and recovery involved with the making of the beast. The creative process was truly the meeting of the weak minds, featuring hundreds of guest musicians, most of which ended up on the cutt [ read more ]

This is a reissue of Oneida's landmark second full-length, which was first issued on the now defunct Turnbuckle label. It was with this record's original release that this motley crew of spinmeisters first made a name for themselves. Just when everyone had thought that there was yet another band in the world with the sole intention of devoting itself to the indulgent pursuit of the endless permutations of "noise exploration", we got instead a "slippery" masterpiece that, according to Mojo (for which this re [ read more ]
