OAKS (oh-kzz) Check out a live version of "WALLS" on YouTube below!
"Since OAKS "bravo!" was produced by Toshi Kasai (who served time with The Melvins as their sound engineer and is now the official third member of Big Business) OAKS share a bit in common with The Biz and The Melvins in terms of sheer loudness. This record is so goddamn heavy that I can't even explain it. You just need to give it a listen and bear witness to the three piece's almighty tones. The songs are catchy and memorable in the vein of Big Business as well and vocalist/bassist Marc has got a delivery that's melodic but far from subtle."

"This 5 song EP from San Diego band Oaks is on one of the most well produced pieces of non-label supported music I've heard in a long while...
It sounds good in the car, on headphones and through the home stereo. Thick and viscous is the center flavor in each of these choice cuts, making a filling meal of fatty over-driven bass, slavering rhythm peppered by crunchy distorted guitars and expertly executed vocals."

Bad Karma - halfway thru Spine on my way to work early this morn & my front lefthand wheel bearing shit itself and stopped my brakes from working properly! Not your fault tho - mine from having the stereo up so LOUD that I didn't hear the bearing throw out! Ha, shitty old car...
Bravo turned up in the mail today all the way from AllThatIsHeavy in the States to my joint in NSW, Australia. Banging it on the car stereo at 6am tomorrow morn for the trip to work, YEEfuckinHAH!
