Live at Henry Miller Library Big Sur
by Osees

supported by 144 fans who also own “Zork's Tape Bruise”

My favourite of the lockdown era livestreams. The Lev Sessions and Red Rocks ones are great too, but Big Sur made "Mutilator Defeated At Last" click for me after I'd struggled with it for a while - those versions of 'Rogue Planet', 'Poor Queen' and 'Withered Hand' are so good, as is 'Gholü' and 'Gelatinous Cube'. The encore of Black Flag covers bang hard as shit too. Also worth a mention are the bonus non-album Panther Rotate experiments at the start of the livestream; an interesting warm-up. Xtra Happy

Levitation Sessions II
by Osees

supported by 91 fans who also own “Zork's Tape Bruise”

Vol. II of the Osees' Lev Sessions is a perfect succesor; digs more oldies out of their ever-growing backcatalog and gives them a fresh coat of paint. Fan favourite 'Tidal Wave' starts things off strong before delving into garage nostalgia with 'The Dream', 'Enemy Destruct' and 'Destroyed Fortress Reappears'. 'Web' and 'Beat Quest' are also great, and it's cute to hear 'Spider Cider' too. The Chrome covers that end things off are really cool; 'SS Cygni' is a hell of a bop to end things off. Xtra Happy
