Y'know, sometimes music doesn't need a long, boring description that details the very sound of a band by comparing it to bands you've never heard of put into situations you've never seen outside of tv-land. Sometimes music is just....raw, noisey gibberish.
Sometimes we just call it garage rock or punk, but the point is Oblivians are the embodiment of it, whatever "it" may be.
Sounding like a dusty bootleg of a gig an obscure, forgotten blues rock band from the 60's played in a bar in the middle of the desert, Soul Food is the perfect example of that Oblivians sound. Raw, jagged and totally ahead of its time...in that it sounded completely out of its time. Seriously, it amazes me that these guys were a 90's garage rock band and not a 60's garage rock band that jammed with the likes of The Stooges and The Sonics.
I'm just rambling now, so forget everything I said and just listen to the music for yourself.
Give it a listen
I'm so punk I buy music
