Oh Sees have released a new song.
Captain Loosely comes with a music video shot by director Matt Yoka on the US/Mexico border and serves as the latest track to be shared from the California garage-rock band's upcoming LP, 'Face Stabber', out on August 16 via Castle Face. Previously shared cuts include Heartworm, Poisoned Stones and the 21-minute Henchlok.
The band have dedicated the spacey instrumental to the victims of the recent mass shooting in El Paso. A statement from the band reads:
"In reflection of the very recent murder of innocents in El Paso, we send our love to the victims and the victims families. We recorded in Tornillo TX (right near El Paso) and are very much in love with the people and families of these border cities.
"We paired up with Matt Yoka to make this minute dreamscape of life and commotion on the border in these often brutal times. People from anywhere on the planet have the right to ask for asylum in our country. This is one of the building blocks of our nation that we are failing to uphold. Hate and fear have been a cancer in the dark corners of our country through its history, violently making its way to the surface. We must resist and fight this evil at all costs."
Yoka added:
"This video is a space for reflection. How has this bad dream become our reality? Now, with news of the hateful massacre that occurred in El Paso… I fear we are slipping further into a nightmare. I pray that love and empathy will wake us up soon."
Oh Sees will accompany the new album's release with European and North American tour dates, including a stop at London's Troxy on September 6.
