The experimental band OvO is one thus far best summed up by lists: who they’ve toured and played with (Thurston Moore, Lightning Bolt, Jim O’Rourke, Larsen, A Hawk Is a Hacksaw, USAISAMONSTER, Kill Me Tomorrow…); what labels have released their albums (Load, Bar La Muerta, Blossoming Noise); what they can’t be strictly categorized as (according to Supernatural Cat Records, not noise, metal, doom, punk, rock ‘n’ roll, free, avant, or improv).
Italian label Supernatural Cat would know, too; SC just signed OvO and have announced a spring 2011 release of the duo’s new album, Cor Cordium. While it’s true that it’s not easy to pigeonhole OvO into one category (besides loud), it’s certainly music for your darker, goth side and would make an uncomfortable soundtrack for your 2011.
