Ox (the band not the animal)

Check out the music of Ox from Vancouver, BC, Canada. From the head of lead cattleman Mark Browning, they describe themselves as:

"wilted, broken, skeletal... the incarnation of deconstructed pop & vintage indie... folk anti-hero mark browning's new voice, 'OX' is full of diesel and grit, spare of polish. the debut, DUSTBOWL REVIVAL is a collection of studio weary fragments, fragile masterpieces, sonic accidents... 'americana' at it's low-fi best."



Great website with lots of sound samples and even a forum where they have diners/donuts as a topic...
