Re: the oxes

easily one of the best live bands i have ever seen. i guess you could say that they can be loosely compared to shellac or don caballero. seriously worth checking out.

Re: the oxes

Yes! I saw them! They were freakin' awesome, altho I thought I was going to die by being subsumed in that violent mosh. Did you catch The Edmund Fitzgerald too? Double wow!

I missed Oxes.

Had the best intentions, but damn, aren't they always dashed?

Re: the oxes

You guys (EdFitz) were awesome that night - have you done your new recordings yet? When will they be available?

Re: the oxes

ah, thanks a lot :). we are in the process of recording a cd, but i doubt it'll be out for a fairly long time. i'll ask about putting a sample/mp3 up on the site though.

Re: the oxes

Well nice to 'meet' you! I must be getting too old for moshes: I was just stood there like someone's mum, fretting that one of the young chaps would do themselves an injury on all that broken glass. Speaking of which, that drunken guy with the broken specs was good value!

Anyway, Jock, I really really enjoyed what I saw of your set (a good 20 minutes) so keep doing what you're doing and I shall definitely come see you play again some time.

Re: the oxes

Seeing them on Sunday hopefully with YMSS.

I missed the EdFitz gig in Liverpool on Tuesday which I'm suitably gutted about due to a unpleasant hangover. That'll learn me to go to student nights.

Re: the oxes

I don't really get what the fuss is with this band. Take the novely factor out, and you are left with bog-standard post-punk-metal. The last time they were over I was utterly bored after 5 minutes.

I'm not having a go...but could someone tell me where I am going wrong with this band?!
