Osaka based Alt Rockers Oh No Darkness!! are another recent new discovery for me but with the release of the band’s self-titled EP “Oh No Darkness!!” I think I might be discovering them at just the right time. Featuring 6 tracks pulled from the group’s multiple live venue and mail order releases from their 5 year career, this release is said to be the best representation of the band and their sound. The fuzzed out Shoegaze sensibilities of tracks like “A-90” and the more upbeat, bouncy nature of EP closer “Bossanova!!!” are personal standouts to me, but over the course of the release you get all of that and pretty much everything else in between as well. There isn’t a shortage of bands performing this style of music in 2020 but if you’re still on the hunt for more songs to add to your playlists then this release should be able to provide you with one or two more I think.
