What you say No-one has reviewed Lover Ungrateful by Oxbow yet. Give us your opinion on Lover Ungrateful by Oxbow. What we say This record left our Brett feeling happy. Everyone loves a bit of Oxbow don't they? Getting your head rammed into a crotch and a mic stand in your stomach? Good times, good times. Recently they've been doing some acoustic shows as the Oxbow Duo and although this Lover Ungrateful 7" is billed as a full Oxbow release it's more in that sort of vein. The lack of crushing riffs doesn't lower the intensity one bit and Eugene Robinson can go on proving that he should really have lived in the 1920s and been the most mental bluesman of all time.. The talk in the office is that it sounds a bit like Mule unplugged or something, not that surprising since they come from a similar sort of lineage. 'Frankly Frank' is a reinterpritaion of a track from their last super excellent LP The Narcotic Story and 'Stallkicker', the lead track, is from the even bettererer An Evil Heat. Righteous kill! What the label says: Designed to be the last will and testament of failed humanity, ladies and gentleman, I give you Oxbow. Quite possibly the most important band in the world right now, something that Eugene Robinson, Dan Adams, Greg Davis and Niko Wenner have been Fighting for some 20 years. Veterans of the world they have played all over; Oxbow now bring you 'Lover Ungrateful', a 7" record containing two of the best songs from the great history of this influential band. From 2002's An Evil Heat (Neurot) is 'Stallkicker' and from 2007's The Narcotic Story (Hydrahead) is 'Frankly Frank', both new recordings, using acoustic instruments only, these are harrowing versions of two classics, that make you feel right next to the band, a place for the brave, but one of the most rewarding on this planet.

About the humble 7":

The humble 7" is the smallest of the vinyl formats (not including the ridiculous 5") and it's the perfect medium for transporting a couple of new songs by up and coming bands straight into your ears. They're fun and they take up less space in your house than something bigger would. They come in a plethora of exciting colours and fantastical packages, and you can fit about 14 minutes onto one 7". You may have to get up every few minutes to put a new record on but think of the exercise. Don't forget every record you buy plays at least 2 speeds (depending on your stereo) and you need to play all records on all speeds to get the maximum joy from your purchase.
