We have an album coming out January 30th! The Vast and Howling Wilderness was recorded over a couple of wildly productive days with Evan Easthope at
@completelysmall.greenglass studio, with some additional overdubs at our
@woodlandtheater home. You can pre order it now; we're thrilled to be releasing it with the wonderful
@dentapes - links are in our bio
Great Ooze started at the Woodland a little over a year ago, the result of an impromptu soundcheck for our annual fundraiser developing into an outlet for capturing our shared experiences living in the desert and building trails, and our love of loud guitars.
The album is a song cycle, each piece a reflection on the isolation and wonder that comes from time spent outdoors, explorations of a land ethic. The "single" you can listen to now is about smashing rocks & whether that's helping anything.
We are
@coateswelsh ,
@repetitionsrepetitions ,
@stubbs092 , and James Madson (who wisely stays away from social media).
Mixed by Landon with guidance from
@jak.mckool
Mastered by Evan Easthope, who believed in these songs and coached us the whole way through.
Our release date also falls on this year's
@dentapes Winter Jam, which will be your next chance to see us! Come help us celebrate, shake off some winter blues, and grab a tape. More dates to follow...
