Thee Oh Sees - Floating Coffin - VINYL LP

*We all know the type prolific bands that commit every loose thought, stray idea and 90-second song fragment to tape. Bands that pay no attention to little inconveniences like Inch cyclesInch or Inchself-editing,Inch and instead decide that quantity equals quality, creating a discography more labyrinthine, imposing and-ultimately-exhausting than the cast of creatures in a sci-fi novel. Here is why none of that applies to THEE OH SEES. Because each of the dozen-plus albums they've released since 2004 possesses a distinct personality and represents a different point along the path of JOHN DWYER's slow transformation from auteur of woozy, bare-bones four-track psychedelia to goggle-eyed garage rock marauder backed at long last by a band that both shares and stokes his singular vision. Because drop a needle on any record and-to their great credit-it takes several songs before you're convinced it's Thee Oh Sees. The seasick hundred-bottles-of-rum shanty InchWhat the Driven Drink,Inch from 2007's delirious Sucks Blood exists in a different galaxy than the rollercoastering InchChem-FarmerInch from last year's Carrion Crawler / The Dream; the doomy doo-wop of InchBlood on the DeckInch hardly seems like the product of the same band that delivered the yelping InchRuby Go HomeInch in 2009.
