The Oblivion Seekers - Snake Eyes

This is the third piece of The Oblivion Seekers' puzzle. More of a production than the first 2 albums, this featured a larger cast and a greater scope of songwriting. It goes south to New Orleans, then further south to Mexico. The personnel are as follows: Mark Sten / vox + guitar + bass + organ Tina Purdy / vox Brian Berg / guitar + vox + bass Roby Williams / drums Kaitlyn ni Donovan / vox Rebecca Kimball / vox John Moen / vox Wendy Pate / vox Roger Conley / bass Lauren Cressman / sax Rob Landoll / guitar Cleo Patton / 'no dice...' Jay Bozich / engineer Drew Canulette / mixdown It was a record that threatened the VERY FABRIC OF THIS PLANET! But somehow, the human race survived. Here's what Simone & Matthias wrote: snake eyes US 94 / Portland Scene 'Gothabilly proto-soul vampire funk'. Der dritte Longplayer der ca. 1990 gegründeten Band - ganz genau weiß es auch Bandleader Mark Sten/g nicht mehr - in der eine ganze Generation Underground-Musiker aus Portland und Umgebung gespielt haben - u. a. Tom 'Pig Champion' Roberts (+ 2006) von POISON IDEA, was für die Experimentierfreude und Vielseitigkeit der Combo spricht. Melodiöser Rock, viel Gitarre, manchmal ein Hauch von Elektro-Country lange, bevor es Neo-Country gab, viel Witz, Ironie und tiefere Bedeutung, atemberaubende Breaks, phantastische Songs * Reptilicus. Garage / R´n R.
