About This Item
Chime Oblivion began out of the blue. David Barbarossa reached out to John Dwyer saying he was a fan of Osees and he was invited to a show in London. The two hung out and hit it off, Inchthen I rabbit holed on Bow Wow Wow too...,Inch Dwyer recalls. InchI reached out to David and suggested that we try and write some songs together... I flew David out, we met at my studio and spent five days writing basic drums ideas.Inch The two got to know each other and had a lot of laughs. Dwyer then brought in Weasel Walter, knowing that he would be perfect Inchto add all that legitimate old-school weird proto-punk no wave guitar scratch to it, which of course he did masterfully.Inch Next came Tom Dolas to play fuzzy marimba, and the fabulous H.L. Nelly, Inchas I knew her from a record I'd put out back in the day for a band called Naked Lights from Oakland. I knew that she could pull off the vocal style I had in mind.Inch Together, the group created their debut self-titled album. For Deathgod.
