Every Night They Hack Off A Limb b/w Human Trafficking (7")

Los Angeles supergroup Oozelles play weirdo punk rock with delightful saxophone and bongo accents, reminiscent of the Birthday Party boiling in a Death Valley heat or the Flesh Eaters experimenting with DC go-go tunes. Their live show is droll and nervy and danceable, and an essential sight to see.

The A-side of their debut single 'Every Night They Hack Off A Limb' starts off like the opening overture theme to a forgotten spy fi lm, then surges into the percussion and sax-led, wired up titular refrain. The B-side 'Human Traffi cking' is a keyboard-driven soul-punk number made especially delightful with bizarro gremlin backing vocals and contagious singalong post-chorus.
