Oozing Wound puts itself in contention for “Best Song Title of the Year” with “Welcome to the Spaceship, Motherfucker“, off their upcoming release Retrash, due out October 15th on Thrill Jockey. This ultra-wicked Chicago thrash trio has Zack Weil on guitar and vocals, Kevin Cribbin on bass, and Kyle Reynolds on drums, and all three members are also active in the cities thriving, weirdo underground scene, playing in bands like Bad Drugs, Cacaw, ZATH, and Unmanned Ship. On their Facebook page they ask “Are you one of the wounded?”, and you think, “Wow guys, thanks for asking…”, until a sinister grin breaks out across their faces, and you realize you’re done for. These guys ain’t asking cause they care about your well-being, they’re here to slay, and you look like easy pickens’! Word is “Welcome to the Spaceship, Motherfucker” recasts the Biblical Joseph as a deadbeat dad, lookin’ to hightail it off the planet the first chance he gets, and if that’s not enough to make you think these are three solid dudes you could really get behind, maybe slogans like “Get High, Fuck, Destroy” or “All the best kinds of heavy without all the fattening aspects of rock“, will help seal the deal! Looks like you can catch Oozing Wound live if you live in Chicago. Here are the upcoming dates…
