NOT CRAP, but I have yet to see them perform live. I'm seeing them tonight, so my vote shall be cast afterward.

Nice guys to the extrreme. They let the shittiest band in Baltimore, who were still very good, borrow a bass even after they saw how the local band's bass player treated his own equipment. Enthusiasts to the max. Great people that might put my Trans Am epiphony at 2nd best. Awesome live. See them. Oh yeah, great people. In fact, I will say they're awesome.

Wow, how'd this one get overlooked?

Oneida is a great band!

I think I've probably talked ad nauseum about these guys many times before, but for my money they're right up there with the best band I've ever seen or heard. No joke either.

Each record is an ugly beast and always takes about 10 listens for me to crack (except come on everybody lets rock) and each record has songs that just unfold in great, sometimes grandiose ways. Like little mini-epics, if I can say that.

They're nice fellas. Gave my band and extra few buck out of their OWN RECORD FUND because they felt our $50 "wasn't right--you guys deserve more than that." Who does that?

So, fuck yes, great band

Awesome band. Started out terrible, I saw their first tour. The arrived as an amazing outfit with "Enemy Hogs" and became a truly fearsome live act. I feel that they lost some steam for a while when they became a trio, it took them a while to get that amazingly saturated sound back, but the last time I saw them it was once again thick as fudge. "Sheets of Easter" from "Each One Teach One" is a textbook assultive psych-rock number.

In the name of all that is holy, Oneida is NOT CRAP.
I love Oneida. Great live, as well.

Excellent, live and on record. Unrelenting.

They strike me as a band Steve might like.

The new album Secret Wars is great.

Cheers,

They got a new one coming soon on Jagjaguwar as usual.

Odd epiphany, they're the new Mudhoney. Aestheticly speaking of course.

I like The Wedding a good deal. Bravo, 'neids!
