OMG has written and recorded the "Oh My God" EP (2000) and the albums "Well" (2001), "Action!" (2002), "Interrogations & Confessions" (2003), "You’re Too Straight To Love Me" (2004) and "Fools Want Noise" (2008). Now, the nasty organ of ig (who’s toured/played with Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, Van Morrison, Otis Rush and the society society-page scandals of singer/bassit Billy O’Neill join forces with two longtime friends from South Dakota: Zach Verdoorn (guitar/bass/vocals) and Danny Yost, both formerly of Sleepeater and now with The Kickback, who are moving to Chicago this year!
The band’s coast-to-coast fall tour kicks off this September, and the new album "The Night Undoes the Work of the Day" comes out late September on Chicago's Split Red Records.
PAST PRESS:
“Oh my god’s dynamic prog-pop crams ideas into each song like a deliciously eclectic pick ’n’ mix...an irresistible cocktail of crunchy, swirling keyboards and jackhammer drums...a monumental feast of pile-driving hooks."
—Kerrang (UK)
“(A) rock-hard, hyper-kinetic power trio...a sound that has been favorably compared to everyone from ELP, Weezer and Devo to the Cars, Deep Purple and Steppenwolf...a range that encompasses the space between flat-out rock and the subtler and more emotion-laden moments of great pop...oh my god has figured out their thing and they are most assuredly doing it all the way...and, oh my god, the thing is good.”
—Cincinnati City Beat
“A sound bigger than the metaphorical shoulders of its hometown. The sparse instrumentation is the band’s signature, but crooner Billy O’Neill, whose rich voice recalls Simple Minds’ Jim Kerr, gives oh my god its soul. This band would leave The Breakfast Club with a completely different ending, one that would strike fear in the hearts of ballpark organists and offer hope to melody-deprived art-rock fans everywhere.”
—Kansas City Pitch Weekly (Critics’ Pick)
“Not your parents’ art rock...soulful vocals set against an experimental backdrop of organ and drums.”
—Alternative Press
“Oh my god relies on organ and bass to create a sound bearing a little resemblance to a school’s Klaxon system going haywire”
—Austin Chronicle (“Saturday Sleeper” pick for SXSW)
“God (would admire) the band’s musical diversity, which includes everything from melodic, radio-friendly rock songs…to robotic electro seethings….And Satan would admire OMG’s hedonistic, possessed live shows….Perhaps most impressive is the infectious pop hooks the band cranks out.”
—Phoenix New Times
“High-volume rock ’n’ roll...a sound that’s equal parts hard rock, prog rock and freak rock...the group may look like a bunch of refugees from Manson’s family, but they sound more like The Partridge Family (being run over by their own bus, that is).”
—ArtVoice, Buffalo, NY
