OXBOW: Tour Diary

Posted in Videos, Tour Diary

Oxbow

Narcotic Story

When MetalKult heard avant-garde noise/metal act Oxbow was tapped as an opening act on several dates of Isis’ 10th Anniversary tour, we had an idea: send Oxbow singer/fighter/author Eugene Robinson a handheld camera and get him to document the events.

After a few disclaimers (namely, “I might just get drunk, fall down, break the camera…and then sell the broken camera to a crack dealer.”) Robinson generously agreed and the deal was sealed.

The footage was edited into a two-part Oxbow Tour Diary, which documents Eugene and his band—Niko Wenner (guitar), Dan Adams (bass) and Greg Davis (drums)—as they support Isis on November 1ndash;4 in New York City, Philadelphia and Cambridge, MA.

MetalKult would like to give many thanks to Eugene, and we encourage you to check out Oxbow’s latest record, The Narcotic Story, out now on Hydra Head Records.
