DC Recordings Presents 'A Death Before Distemper' with The Osc
Born out of the ashes of The Orichalc Phase, The Oscillation is Demian Castellanos' mightiest incarnation yet, a bewildering mix of pop songs and expansive psychedelic freakouts that demands comparison with the harder edge of the 70's krautrock scene, the lambent tones of bands like Spiritualized or Loop at their most medicated, or The Ruts battling their way out of an echo chamber to a background of white noise.
On October 15th The Oscillation's debut album "Out Of Phase" will be released on DC Recordings. A week prior, the single "Head Hang Low", a blissed out reworking of Julian Cope's classic ballad from 1984, newly rendered into a bitter sweet dose of pop melancholia.

October 23rd Corsica Studios, London W/ Kling Klang; November 2nd The Amersham Arms, New Cross, London; November 7th Saki Bar, Manchester w/Deerhunter. November 9th Recyclart, Brussells w/ Fujiya Miyagi; November 16th Maximum Joy, Dublin.
