About Osees

Formed
1997
A raw, noisy, over-the-top rock & roll explosion, Osees is one of the many incarnations of John Dwyer's long-running garage-punk project. Rooted in his ripsaw guitar sound, shouted vocals, and aggressive performance style, Osees was a more streamlined handle for Dwyer's group Thee Oh Sees (or just Oh Sees), and they adopted the moniker in 2006. Fractured psychedelic pop, confident garage rock revivalism, crushing proto-metal, dark psychedelia, and trippy prog are some of the ingredients that give their music its form and flavor. 2015's Mutilator Defeated at Last was the album where the Oh Sees' many ingredients best came together before they reinvented themselves as Osees with 2020's Protean Threat. The band began to integrate synthesizers into their sound more and more, on 2023's Intercepted Message edging into vintage synth pop territory, while 2024's SORCS 80 subtracted guitars from their approach entirely without sacrificing any of their innate punkness.
