iTunes Editors’ Notes

Not only does Floating Coffin boast perhaps the best and most appropriately wacky artwork yet to adorn a record by these garage-psych kings; it may be Thee Oh Sees' best collection of tunes. Their 12th studio album narrows Thee Oh Sees' focus after the stylistic sprawl of Putrifiers II, honing in on (and scrubbing down) their neon-soaked, fuzz-encrusted sound just enough to give the feel of a record destined to be a classic. It's got twin guitar leads, blood-boiling organ riffs, swirling and sticky melodies, and a declarative hard-rocking identity. From the roaring stomp of "I Come from the Mountain," the Krautrock-inflected "No Spell," and the bass-driven, hyper-speed havoc of "Maze Fancier" to the viola-sighing, discontented "Minotaur," Floating Coffin has a cohesive structure and accessible sonic-palate thrills. The Bay Area is darn lucky to have these guys—along with an embarrassment of other musical riches—and they know it. Thee Oh Sees wear a crown, bestowed by the bloodied masses at their feral live shows and the armchair travelers who enjoy their mind-melting excursions from a distance. We're not worthy.

Customer Reviews

Best yet!

Been streaming it for a week waiting for purchase and I think this is their best and most complete album. Great from start to finish. Can't wait to see them play these live!!

Yet ANOTHER great release...

You do not even need to sample the tracks to know that each and every release by THEE OH SEES needs to INSTANTLY be purchased...Easily the best band in America at the moment, and since their inception...One of the ONLY bands I feel compelled to spend money on...A little punk, a little fuzz, a little trippy, a little sunshine, a little pop, a little crunch, all rockin' all rad all the time....this is a band that already sounds classic because they take the best conventions that their influences have to offer, and then perfect them to the utmost degree....They know EXACTLY what to do with those varying sensibilites....One of the ONLY bands that makes me feel like rocking out and singing along, even while drearily performing manual labor....Its that groovy, its that infectious, its that killer! These guys put out like 16 albums a year (just kidding, but the rate that they're relesing albums is prolific) and every one is a guaranteed slam dunkaroo...its not often that I use the word dunkaroo...See them live in order to take the brain-melting experience to another level! I look forward to everything they plan on, moving forward...I know i'll be keeping my ear to their activities for a long time, cuz a band this consistently good is a rarity...don't think about it, buy it! and everything else they've done!

!

There's nothing like starting off your week with a brand new album from Thee Oh Sees! Can't get enough of these new tunes.
