O’Death’d 2 Death

« H E Nothing Matters but the MUSIC :: email
posted 09/26/2006
Autumn ‘tis the perfect season for O’Death (myspace).

At least d, from Beg Yr. Pardon, and Jen, from Gothamist, must’ve thought so: They booked the band on consecutive nights this week.

Steady, ladies. There’ll be enough O’Death to go ‘round. I love these guys. As do the folks at Indie-licious, The Music Slut, The Simple Mission, Suckapants, WaterCoolerGossip, Who’s  Driving the Bus, Yeti Don’t Dance... Rumor has it they’re loved by people without blogs, too.

They’re a great live act and you’ve really no excuse to not know that. They play all the time. And to underscore this you can see them close out Tuesday night at the Delancey and/or open up Wednesday night at the mystical Spiegeltent. I wouldn’t be surprised if they tried to squeeze three or four more shows in-between.

Apparently there are additional performers at each gig. Here:


Yeah, my eyes glaze over when I see flyers, too. Click on them for more info, music, etc.

Miss those and you’ll have to wait until Friday, when O’D plays “The New Party Club” (whatever the hell that is). Point is, they play a lot because people wants ‘em to play a lot. So get with it.

Bring extra scratch for O’Death’s CD Head Home (also available here and on iTunes). And don’t let them leave without playing “Nathaniel.” They left it off the set-list last time I saw them, and they just... can’t do that. It’s a showstopper.

Just saw the Series Premiere of some TV drama called Heroes. Normal people discover they have super powers, ominous plot, blah blah blah. Whatever potential the show might have is overshadowed by this:

Occupations of male superheroes: Politician, nurse, professor/cab driver, cubicle worker, artist.

The female superheroes? A webcam stripper and a cheerleader.

Yayyyy team!

Not that I'm trying to be Mr. Scenemeister or anything but I had a very wild time at the first New Party Club; I went for a friend of mine who did a performance piece called "The White Buffalo Woman" and stuck around for some great crazy music by a band called "Death Rat" that blared until a power outtage in the wee hours. (My account is here, if anyone needs something to read on the can: fistswithyourtoes.blogs.com/fistswithyourtoes/2006/06/these_things_ha.html) It sounds like the ideal place for a marathon O'Death overload. On another note, I really liked that Lucy Monostone song & asked a couple of guys in the lab to research my theory that the singer on that track is John Linnell of They Might Be Giants.
