DESCRIPTION

AMAZON
On Enemy Hogs, Oneida's second doped-up, super-scuzzy album of psychedelic garage-punk, they sound pretty much like the ultimate good-time 60s rock 'n' roll band--or at least, that band seen through a kaleidoscope of mind-bending pharmaceuticals. You could call the cross-dressing Brooklyn-based retro-rockers a response to the jaded, super-cool hegemony of the American alt-rock, but in all honesty, they would probably shrug their shoulders, shake their heads, and plead ignorance of any strait-laced scene outside their own hedonistic bubble. Without doubt, they're more out there than other NYC-dwelling gutter poets such as The Strokes and Moldy Peaches, beckoning screeching free-jazz sax into the picture on "Bombay Fraud", and laying down huge, Suicide-esque walls of synth as a queasy coda on the run-out of "Hard Workin' Man". But while this is, incontestably, a difficult album, there are some wonderfully opulent moments: take "Turn It Up (Loud)", which kicks off with the sound of a male voice choir, morphs briefly into a bastard cousin of Jo n Spencer Blues Explosion's "Bellbottoms", and concludes on an almighty, juddering gong crash. Enemy Hogs says take a trip downtown; it might not be cool, but damn, it sure is fun. --Louis Pattison
