***"Absolute[ly] two new and fresh tunes from Oneida—the original, pioneering [please find less fraught term], Brooklyn DIY band now via Boston, Brooklyn and Queens (NYC real estate keeps 'em guessing). Recorded during a recent session at their new-ish rehearsal studio named (not by them) MALVINA PARTY JAIL (with additional recording at Deep Dive in Flatbush), these two stout, emotive and pungent [insert fragrant?] jams behold a band acting very much their age (almost 30) but also not really acting their age, because they are still at it and somehow have not become cynical and/or unpleasant to be around. So perhaps they are tunes that sound as if they are performed by fresh-faced 30 year olds with a few more things to prove.'I Can't Stand You (single version)' originated as a seed planted by the one and only Baby Jane and brought to redolent and chaotic fruition during an early take. It's rough, ready but also well mannered enough to appear on your neighborhood pirate radio station.We forget the name of the B-side b/c it's taken from an almost hour long jam from the same session (actually it's called 'Steel' b/c Barry plays steel guitar on it!)—and there are no lyrics (any ideas? please write the band care of Ernest Jenning)—but it is as robust and hard charging as the best of this band's storied catalog.Just because they're old doesn't mean they're good!"Beautiful artwork by the band's long suffering and talented designer of choice—Dan Schechter."
