Synopsis

Album Description

The debut OX: DUST BOWL REVIVAL (to be released December, 2002) is a collection of studio weary fragments, fragile masterpieces, sonic accidents; a candid album in the truest sense. Recorded live to analog tape and spliced cassette demo recordings made across the mid-west, DUST BOWL REVIVAL is literally, a record of a record; a behind the scenes look at recording an album.

A Homage...

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've just written (and deleted) around 500 words explaining how and why Ox is a man people should be forced to listen to. However, I've decided that it was all a little unnecessary and all that really needs to be said is that the man is a genius. His lyrics are insightful, humourous, rediculous, and heart-breaking. 'Carolinah' is quite simply one of the most beautiful songs ever written, 'LA City' will have you singing along way after the cd has finished. 'North Country Girl', a sad, yet strangely uplifting ode to lost love, the song of the album. Talking about his 'old turntable' he says in a tired voice, "where the needle has broke off/ God only knows". Metaphors aside, Dust Bowl Revival is an incredible album. It makes you smile ('Stolen Bike') breaks your heart ('Oh Eileen', 'Carolinah') and makes you want to jump into the nearest car, wind the windows down - and just drive ('Blue Morning', 'LA City'). Buy this album, you will not regret it. It's like discovering Wilco all over again."
