OOZEPUS Signs With Domestic Genocide
December 4, 2013, 10 years ago
Domestic Genocide has signed a pact with Tokyo-based, OOZEPUS, welcoming the trio to their ever-morphing society of auditory sickness.
Uchino, of Japanese doom lords, COFFINS, initiated Oozepus in 2012, in order to re-examine his earlier roots as COMPROMISE YOU NEED -- the band previous to Coffins in the mid-'90s -- was forged in the more industrial/death tradition of GODFLESH, DEAD WORLD and SKIN CHAMBER. Taking on vocal and guitar duties, he recruited fellow Coffins-mate Satoshi on drums, and bassist/vocalist Ohkubo of Linekraft and Albiorix Requiem, the band began crafting this elder template into a new design.
Oozepus released their first recordings earlier this year in the form of a three-song demo issued through Three Plugs Records/Pagan Result, the material displaying a bruising, hypnotic metallic style comparable to early SWANS, Godflesh, SCORN and no wave with a molten, organic persuasion. The potent demo caught the ear of American-based Domestic Genocide who contracted the outfit to join the label roster.
