Prolific psych-rockers Oh Sees release a new double album called Face Stabber on Friday (August 16).

In the new issue of Uncut – in UK shops tomorrow or available to order online now by clicking here – we write that “Face Stabber constitutes [jazz] elements’ deepest incursion into Oh Sees proper with thrilling results”.

Of the song, chief Oh See John Dwyer says: “Earth is smacked by a bacterium from outer space which leads to dancing, fornication, gluttony and ultimately the coming apart of human systems.”
