OSEES release new album Intercepted Message on Friday, and to celebrate they stopped by Tom Sharpling’s The Best Show to play the whole thing live in the studio. The two-drummer lineup of the band tore through the album’s 12 synth-forward tracks in less time than it takes to listen to the studio version.
Bandleader John Dwyer also talked with Tom about the album, “the state of the DIY scene, the best shows they’ve ever seen, giving drugs to Mark E. Smith,” and more. Watch OSEES’ Best Show performance and listen to the interview below.
OSEES will be on tour this fall, including two Brooklyn shows at Warsaw on September 22 (with Population II) & 23 (with Nolan Potter’s Nightmare Band). All dates are listed below.
