Ox (Canada)
|
|
|
As soon as we hear Mark Browning�s drawling vocals creak on the opening song �Miss Idaho� we instantly know that Ox has delivered an album of stature. Dope-soaked, derelict and wired, �American Lo Fi� features 11 songs that give a nod to Velvet Underground meets Bruce Springsteen, trading New Jersey urban fairground for Pacific interstate moonscape.
Ox's long awaited follow up to the seminal alt-country, indie hybrid classic, 'Dust Bowl Revival', fuses weary with vicious, punk with hillbilly, the farmer in the city with the electro-magnetic aura of tape hiss and amp crackle. �American Lo Fi� was recorded in the manic confines of Vancouver's Profile Studios (aka Upstairs Sound Laboratory) amid the plume of smoke, sweat and heavy Pacific laced air. |
