Oulipo w/ Alligator Indian (Asheville) // Brain Paint (first show!) at Espresso News
267 Howard st
Boone, NC, 28607
United States
“Give Oulipo’s latest EP a few measures and its title, Primitive Ways, makes sense — skittering beats and cavernous, reverberating vocals overwhelm as a few witchy howls drive the point home… These are not the acid-washed jams that they initially seem; they’re great pop songs, built by offspring of high artistic theory residing in the digital age.” -Shuffle Magazine

Though rising and thriving in the sun-soaked swamps of Central Florida, before huddling in the bed-bug infested tombs of Brooklyn, Alligator Indian weren’t truly forged until Spooky Bubble and Christian Church relocated to the subterranean crystal nexus that is Asheville, North Carolina. It’s here they’ve spent the past two years honing their arts & craft while unfurling a slew of EPs and singles, either through their own machinations or with the help of friends and believers like KillerPOP, Beko-DSL, and most importantly, Bleeding Gold. Spring I’m In is the most chronologically recent release by the band and San Diego’s Bleeding Gold Records.
