Buggin - Concrete Cowboys - VINYL LP

Limited clear vinyl LP pressing.

Los Angeles band Oog Bogo (featuring former Meatbodie Kevin Boog) have released an EP and an LP for Ty Segall's God? tag - now their second LP arrives via In The Red. InchCowgirlsInch goes off-road, so buckle up, because with songwriter Kevin Boog & engineer Eric Bauer behind the wheel of John Dwyer and Bauer's studio InchDiscount MirrorsInch - anything can happen. In March of 2024, 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 InchCowgirlsInch 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.

Forty or so Damaged Bug tunes from the past seven years were orphaned / unfinished, which is pretty rare for me. I just kept having other things going on and life kept getting in the way. And frankly, the songs were all over the place so I didn't see a thread in there, but in light of current events in the world, I feel like it's every artist's calling to construct personal messages cloaked in a moments of escapism. That's what this record is for me-was something to clear the decks a little bit in my studio and relax my mind and keep the wolf from the door. It's a bit of a joyous / sad record dealing with hope and forgiveness, two things which I hope end up more in my life. It's abstract and poppy, fried and sugary. InchIt exactly how I feel at the moment fried and skewed.InchGood luck out there and I hope this turns off the torrent for you, for a moment.Inch- John Dwyer
