O'Death tours, works on new album for fall

A stomp and a clap and Appalachian jug band sensibilities are all that’s needed to get along at an O’Death show, though a straw in the mouth and a farmer’s tan would be nice touches. Bring that fresh-from-the-field/mountain stream look to one of the group’s shows as the group hoots and hollers its punkish-oldtime on a tour with Langhorne Slim this March, before supporting Murder by Death through April.

Gigantic music recently released O’Death’s “Spider Home” 7”, which features the b-side “Silk Hole.” Vocalist Greg Jamie told Paste that the band is now in pre-production with Alex Newport (At the Drive-In), with the next album projected to hit shelves sometime this fall. “Gigantic was pretty great,” Jamie said, “But Alex is more experienced and he knows how to get a groovy live sound.”
