New London three-piece Oh800 write songs about internal freak-outs, feeling like a kid in your 30’s and getting ripped off. Oh800 have previous. The band feature former members of The Duke Spirit, Oh Ruin and Memory Maze, each a musician fanatic in their own right.
Bonding over a shared love of decayed early 80s New York underground – think CBGBs, ESG, 99 Records – the group bond these with a defiant attitude. The results are pretty intriguing. Oh800 will release their debut album on Infinite Jest later this year, with new single ‘Character Building’ already out there.
It’s a torn and tattered offering, with the band grabbing those influences and sluicing it through an acerbic, deeply British viewpoint.
Released 30th September 2016 on Infinite Jest Records.
