Biography

One could explain Oneida's music by the fact that they come from Brooklyn, a noisy terrier that has also seen Liars flourish, A Place to Bury Strangers or TV on The Radio, or that they are signed by Jagjaguwar (Dinosaur Jr, Okkervil River, Black Mountain or Parts & Labor) but that would probably not be enough to list all the styles brewed in the music of the trio.
Born in 1997, Oneida takes its roots in psychedelic rock and krautrock. The first album of the combo, A Place Called El Shaddai's is a totally experimental lo-fi disc entirely composed under drugs. The band entered Jagjaguwar in 1999 and increased its productivity, until they released one record a year. Fascinated by repetition, the pieces of Oneida are often variations around the same riff, exhausted to the infinity.
In 2008, the trio's most ambitious work began: a tryptic on the theme of "Thank Your Parents". Psychedelic to wish, Preteen Weaponry released that year while waiting for the big song, Rated O (2009): a monster on 3 CD, representative of what the band can do better - play until exhaustion.
