oh no oh my do something rad for old fans, release EP
Oh No Oh My at the Bottom of the Hill, August 2007
I got an email a couple weeks ago from Daniel of Oh No Oh My (myspace):
It’s been awhile since you’ve last heard from me. If you’re receiving this email, it means that way back in 2005/2006 you bought what was essentially a demo directly from our website…whether it was the $1.50 CD-R, or the pre-order that included artwork (with 4 exclamation points).[...]
Sooo, we’ve been pretty busy since then, but after much procrastination, we decided to record some brand new music for the first time in 3 years. We recorded and mixed it ourselves in my house, just like we did with our original demos, although I think we’re all a bit happier with the overall results. It was mastered by Emily Lazar and Joe LaPorta at the Lodge in New York. It’s called Dmitrij Dmitrij, and it will be available on ITunes and most other digital music stores starting October 21st. We have a limited number of CD’s and 12″ vinyl we’ll be selling exclusively at our shows.
To show our gratitude for supporting us at the very beginning of our musical endeavors, we’re giving you a copy of Dmitrij Dmitrij to download for free.
I did in fact buy the $1.50 pre-order album [1] after first hearing about the band from this gorilla v bear post [2]. I’ve enjoyed their stuff, especially last year’s EP (and that great song “I Have No Sister”). This EP, Dmitrij Dmitrij is no different. It’s a solid offering of quirky pop from this band.
Oh No Oh My – Boy with an Anchor (mp3)
Dmitrij Dmitrij is available from emusic and Amazon mp3 among other digital stores. The band is currently on tour in Europe. You can find tour dates on their myspace.
[1] And it was obvious that I was getting the email as a fan because it came through to my personal email address, not the blog email address.
[2] It’s not often that I remember the exact post I first hear about a band from.
