I featured Brooklyn post-punk band OOF on the blog a couple years ago. They’ve now got a new album out titled What’s Bad Is Good containing seven snappy tracks where they continue to play around with their unique grumbling baritone-sax-infused rock sound. I didn’t know which track to feature here, as they’re all pretty fun, so I thought it was apt to go with ‘Can’t Have Just One’, which you can check out above. - Music Related Junk
"OOF are just exceedingly great at taking these sort of mundane, domestic situations and examining them. They’re really terrific lyricists." - WFMU
The lo-fi, quirky goodness that Brooklyn trio OOF churn out on Mirror Mirror is part skronk and part noise-punk, suggesting Beefheart, The Raincoats, and Half Japanese. Gnarly and delightfully catchy tunes. - Bandcamp Daily

Bio
OOF is a skronky post-punk, no-wave trio based in New York with baritone sax and sweet/growling vocals. Since 2017, OOF has composed songs both raucous and harmonically complex with social commentary about our mundane or political lives. They have been compared to Tom Waits, The Raincoats, Captain Beefheart, The Ex, Morphine, and The Flesh Eaters. With former members of Rathaus, The Duke of Uke and His Novelty Orchestra, and Famous Logs in History, they blend various sonic influences.
