The Mighty ONEIDA Turns 10 In September
ONEIDA will be hitting a seriously impressive milestone next month. They've been unleashing various forms of sonic pandemonium since 1997, when they were just pups in a Brooklyn warehouse. Since then, they've been responsible for 8 full-length records, countless tours, numerous collaborations (with Liars, Brother JT, Plastic Crimewave Sound, & Songs:Ohia, to name a few), two recording studios (Sunset Grill & the Ocropolis), and one record label (Brah Records!), all while maintaining equally fulfilling and completely unrelated day jobs. Perhaps the most accurate (and not in the least bit hyperbolic) characterization comes from the O themselves: "Oneida, greater than the Phoenix, achieves repeated rebirth without the necessity of death or all-consuming fire". Cheers to that!
To celebrate, Oneida will hit the stage for an anniversary bash at the PS1 Contemporary Art Center on Saturday, September 1, along with fellow brahs Ex-Models, Dirty Faces, and Sightings, plus a few secret special guests! DJs Knox Overstreet, Michael Troutman (of Awesome Color), Brad Truax (of Home), and John Fitz will ably man the wheels of steel.
If you can't make it out to Long Island, Oneida will be playing with Finnish Kraut-masters Circle at the Knitting Factory on September 22. For the Irish fans, you can catch them in Cork, Dublin, and
Galway in early October. The band will wrap up this anniversary year with their second appearance at All Tomorrows Parties in Minehead, UK, where they'll be sharing the stage with Portishead, Thurston Moore, Boris, Aphex Twin, and label-mates Black Mountain, among many others.
Also, for a limited time, they will be offering a free career-spanning Oneida Compendium. which will be available on Emusic for the entire month of September. It includes tracks from all of Oneida's classic full-lengths on Jagjaguwar, along with a rare treat from an early 7".
