The Line of Best Fit
Thee Oh Sees are set to release a new album later this month despite recently announcing plans to take an extended break. Now, you can hear the title-track from said release.
Thee Oh Sees are set to release a new album later this month despite recently announcing plans to take an extended break. Now, you can hear the title-track from said release.
The two songs we’ve heard from Thee Oh Sees’ forthcoming Drop spanned a vast aesthetic distance; “Penetrating Eye” was a gnarly unhinged riff monster, while “The Lens” was a subdued and pretty psych ballad.
“The Lens” is the latest video from Thee Oh Sees. The song is the last track on their new LP, Drop, which is out April 19. Fun fact: The album was recorded in a banana-ripening warehouse. Check out the clip for “The Lens” below.
California’s Thee OhSees’ new album ‘Drop’ will, err, drop on April 19. Expect musical colours every bit as vibrant and psychedelic as the record’s cartoon sleeve.
Thee Oh Sees are still not off their indefinite hiatus yet. Though San Francisco’s sweethearts may be on a long-deserved break, that doesn’t mean they haven’t been productive. Case in point: their new video for “The Lens”…
Thee Oh Sees have released an animated video for “The Lens”, a recent track from the forthcoming record Drop, which comes out April 19 via John Dwyer’s Castle Face imprint.
Thee Oh Sees take us on an intergalactic animated psych-out in their music video for “The Lens”, a song off their forthcoming full-length Drop due out next month.
Thee Oh Sees, fronted by San Francisco’s lost boy, are releasing a new album April 19 (this Record Store Day), called Drop. The very much not broken up band already released one single through Pitchfork in February…
Thee Oh Sees’ follow-up to Floating Coffin, Drop, is out April 19 (Record Store Day) via John Dwyer’s Castle Face Records. They’ve already shared album cut “Penetrating Eye”. Now, check out “The Lens”.
We heard the riff-powered rager “Penetrating Eye” last month, and now a second song called “The Lens” is out in the world.
Thee Oh Sees already released “Penetrating Eye” from their upcoming album, Drop, which comes out on Record Store Day (4/19) via Castle Face, and they’ve now released another album cut, “The Lens.”
…San Francisco’s Thee Oh Sees will release a new album, Drop, on April 19th via frontman John Dwyer’s Castle Face Records. Already we’ve heard album opener “Penetrating Eye”, and today the band’s unveiled “The Lens”
…a new music, art, and film festival that will take place at the ExCeL Centre in London August 15-16. Today, we’re happy to announce more additions to the lineup. James Blake, Darkside, Sun Kil Moon, Thee Oh Sees…
Coachwhips, who existed from 2001 – 2005, don’t sound miles away from what Dwyer would do with Thee Oh Sees, just more raw and lower-fi — even compared to early Oh Sees.
Let’s temper that whole “lack of an actual hiatus” thing a bit, because while Drop, Thee Oh Sees’ fifth official full-length in four years, is set for release April 19, it was technically recorded last fall…
Thee Oh Sees’ indefinite hiatus turned out to be mercifully brief. The garage-rock champs will release new album Drop on April 19…via frontman John Dwyer’s Castle Face label.
Prolific Bay Area psych-garage warriors Thee Oh Sees announced a hiatus last year, but even as they were doing it, they made it good and clear that they weren’t breaking up for good, even claiming that they’d have an album out early in 2014.
California psych-garage favourites Thee Oh Sees gave their fans panic attacks a couple of months ago after announcing a hiatus, in part instigated by leader John Dwyer’s move from the Bay Area to Los Angeles and years of touring.
Dwyer has a new solo project that he’s calling Damaged Bug, and he’ll release an album called Hubba Bubba under that name in just a few weeks. First single “Eggs At Night” sounds absolutely nothing like any incarnation of Thee Oh Sees…
For Floating Coffin, Dwyer involved the other band members in the songwriting like he hadn’t in a long time, and the result is a vicious, grin-inducing document of fuzz-guitar brutality and seductive, boundless grooves.
John Dwyer and co. do not stop. Loose and heavy, Floating Coffin finds the Bay Area vets burning through the darkness. Riffs abound, and while you might show up for the shred, it’s the intermittent levity that holds it all together
No longer a cult band championed by in-the-know indie nerds, Thee Oh Sees have become trendsetters thanks to their ever-broadening sonic language and seemingly tireless work ethic.
Vol. 3 is the best of these singles collections yet, with some downright gems and curious if imperfect steps into the unknown. Most importantly, it shows that Dwyer and Thee Oh Sees are far from settling into a groove….
Thee Oh Sees aren’t breaking any new ground on Singles Collection Volume 3. Instead, long-time fans who have a completist urge will find owning these tracks in one stylish package to be a necessity…
The drums thump a back beat with the determination of a toddler wielding a toy hammer, the bass line jigs in place, and Dwyer rips open his guitar to the skies…. For him and for his faithful, it’s a gathering place.

Thee Oh Sees have always had plenty of non-album songs to spare, and the Bay Area garage outfit are collecting a chunk of them on their upcoming Singles Collection Volume 3
Over the last 16 years, Bay Area garage rockers Thee Oh Sees have built up quite the sizable discography, including some 12 full-lengths, dozens of singles and EPs, and countless more contributions to various compilations.
Music-festival staples, tireless tourdogs, frequent visitors to all the big cities — we’ve seen more Oh Sees shows than it’s worth recounting here. But on Friday, an especially psyched crowd made for an especially berserk set.
Of every band playing Fun Fun Fun Fest this weekend, Thee Oh Sees will be the one that I love unconditionally, but will not understand. It’s the generation gap in action.
