OMA
YANG
Bang! Bang!
Description: Teetering the line
between ear-bleeding volume and heart-breaking
quiet, Oma Yang's finest hour
is this epic assortment of instrumental madness.
Fans of Mogwai, Explosions in the Sky, etc...
should take note. This CD will kick your ass,
in a good way.
Press:
"Throughout the 40 or so minutes that is
Bang Bang, Oma Yang seem to be intent on proving
that there's nothing they can't do within the
instrumental format. Careening along like a herd
of drunken rhinos one minute and going for a quiet,
pensive mood the next, the band is nothing if
not dynamic. Oma Yang can carefully, deliberately
set a mood for the duration of a lengthy piece,
or they can come out of the gates with all four
cylinders firing at once. There are times during
Bang Bang when you might be tempted to peg Oma
Yang as mere pretenders to the Chicago post-rock
throne, but these guys play with more unabashed
energy than any band I can think of with roots
in that scene." SPLENDID
