The band deal with nihilism yet remain addictively fun. Their music is equal parts sludge and thrash, noise and riff-loaded rock. ‘High Anxiety’ is an unabashed mocking of the madness of modern living, its chemical induced adventures and establishment absurdity, deriding the industrial complex behind established institutions such as NASA while savaging those who deny science. Oozing Wound on ‘High Anxiety’ are nihilistic pied pipers making us laugh our way to the apocalypse. The album finds guitarist and vocalist Zack Weil, drummer Kyle Reynolds and bassist Kevin Cribbin blending their ferocious energy, sonic experiments and blunt lyricism for a pummelling enjoyable headbanger with an irresistible sneer. On ‘High Anxiety’, Oozing Wound’s songs have become more complex, their attacks more ferocious, and bass and guitar lines more captivating. The album was recorded in four days at Steve Albini’s Electrical Audio studio. The trio ripped through live-tracking and overdubs, leaving space to experiment with new sounds and effects. The band, having an affinity for the complexities of prog music, managed to bring prog elements to ‘High Anxiety’ without sacrificing any of their songs’ punch. Subtle layers of saxophone, flutes and synths were blended into guitar tones, adding depth and texture without cluttering arrangements. Fist-pumping blasts of whitehot riffing become a Trojan horse for sonic weirdness. The resulting recordings are at once some of their most sonically rich, immediate, and impactful. LP pressed on virgin vinyl with an artworked inner sleeve and free download card. Also available on Nuclear Waste Green coloured vinyl. “Oozing Wound exude an attitude that immediately distinguishes them from the music they reference.” – Pitchfork “If you’re a fan of thrash metal, check this out. If you’re a fan of intense, aggressive thrash metal with sections seemingly pulled out of a sonic hat, check this out.” – Post Thrash “Inside jokes and faux bravado aside, they’re also sophisticated songwriters, with a keen ear for melody and a daredevil approach to odd meters, feedback, and noise.” – Premier Guitar Artist Oozing Wound Genre Metal / Classic Rock Label Thrill Jockey Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Includes Download Code Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl , Includes Download Code Condition New Country UK Track Listings Surrounded By Fucking Idiots Filth Chisel Tween Shitbag Die On Mars Birth of a Flat Earther Riding the Universe Vein Ripper Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Oozing Wound and more from Metal / Classic Rock View Product Quick View Oozing Wound High Anxiety Metal / Classic Rock | Thrill Jockey | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 15th March 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Oozing Wound High Anxiety £19.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Thrill Jockey SKU: THRILL473LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 15th March 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Godflesh Hymns Metal / Classic Rock | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released 25th February 2013 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Godflesh Hymns £24.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP732 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 25th February 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Tobias Sammet's Avantasia Angel Of Babylon Metal / Classic Rock | Nuclear Blast | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 11th October 2023 £60.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Tobias Sammet's Avantasia Angel Of Babylon £60.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Nuclear Blast SKU: nn273925 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 11th October 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Thirty Six Crazyfists Bitterness The Star Metal / Classic Rock | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 1st March 2024 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Thirty Six Crazyfists Bitterness The Star £28.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1794C Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 1st March 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Iron Maiden Somewhere In Time Metal / Classic Rock | Parlophone | 180g, 1LP Released 18th November 2014 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Iron Maiden Somewhere In Time £17.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Parlophone SKU: 0825646248544 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 18th November 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mastodon Call Of The Mastodon Metal / Classic Rock | Relapse | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 13th March 2014 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mastodon Call Of The Mastodon £17.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Relapse SKU: RR65151 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 13th March 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sepultura Machine Messiah Metal / Classic Rock | Nuclear Blast | 2LP Released 13th January 2017 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sepultura Machine Messiah £17.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Nuclear Blast SKU: NB3640-1 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 13th January 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Tool Fear Inoculum (3LP) Metal / Classic Rock | Sony Music | 3LP Released 5th August 2022 £49.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Tool Fear Inoculum (3LP) £49.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Sony Music SKU: 19439950201 Formats: 3LP Released Date: 5th August 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Tesla Shock Metal / Classic Rock | UMC | 180g, 1LP Released 8th March 2019 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tesla Shock £18.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: UMC SKU: 7701940 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 8th March 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View AC/DC Who Made Who – 50th Anniversary Metal / Classic Rock | Sony | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 15th March 2024 £29.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations AC/DC Who Made Who – 50th Anniversary £29.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Sony SKU: 19658834621 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 15th March 2024 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Ulver Themes From William Blake’s The Marriage Of Heaven & Hell Metal / Classic Rock | Peaceville | 2LP Released 3rd September 2021 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ulver Themes From William Blake’s The Marriage Of Heaven & Hell £25.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Peaceville SKU: VILELP918 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 3rd September 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Metal / Classic Rock Start again
