Waking Up With… JOHN DWYER And OSEES And A New Riff Monster (What Else)

Daily noise that works faster than any stimulant

20 May 2023

24/7 riff maniac JOHN DWYER and OSEES, one of his many musical outfits,
unleash a new longplayer, titled Intercepted Message in August.

More details to follow.

Dwyer has this to say about the new LP.

“A pop record for tired times.
Sugared with bits of shatterproof glass to put more crack in your strap.
At long last, Verse / chorus
A weathered thesaurus
This is Osees bookend sound
Early grade garage pop meets proto-synth punk suicide-repellant
Have a whack at the grass or listen while flat on your ass
Heaps of electronic whirling accelerants to gum up your cheapskate broadband

Social media toilet scrapers unite!
Allow your 24 hour news cycle eyes to squint
at this smiling abattoir doorman
You can find your place here at long last
All are welcome
From the get go to the finale ….
A distant crackling transmission of 80s
synth last-dance-of-the-night
tune for your lost loves

Suffering from Politic amnesia?
Bored of AI-generated pop slop?
Then this one is for you, our friends

Wasteland wanderer, stick around.

Love y’all

For fans of Teutonic synth punk and
Thee Oh Sees (who the fuck are they?)

– John Dwyer”

The first single, the title track, is a riff monster (what else) but
not only with deranged guitars but some schizo synths too.

Here’s the funny video with Dwyer as a TV news anchor.
