Details:
Ovipositor is a rock band from Oakland, CA. Laurin Askew plays the bass, Colin Frangos plays the guitar, Mark Pino plays the drums.

Weâve been compared to everyone from Arab on Radar to Albert Ayler to The Fall to the Minute Men. And, of course, Sonic Youth, because if you play even slightly discordant rock, youâre going to get compared to Sonic Youth. We strive to make propulsive music that rides the line between chaotic dissonance and driving rock and roll. The Shaggs meets the Sonics. The Magic Band covering James Brown. Ornette Coleman sitting in with the Mummies. The Hot Snakes going as Thinking Fellers for Halloween. Old Time Relijun channeling the Ex. Jandek via Mission of Burma. Sonny Sharrock playing with Federation X. Itâs a good time, just slightly⦠wrong.

Pirate Flag at Half-Mast is our second album.

ââ¦an unassuming and even nerdy front⦠Pere Ubu on a caffeine overdose⦠a crackling instrumental with a thumpy beat and fast, choppy chords⦠squeals and buzzes and channeling the iconoclasm of Sonny Sharrock⦠broke down into a free-floating middle⦠urgent chords and dissonant guitar fireworks melted into a few minutes of cavernous, slow improv.â â San Francisco Bay Guardian live review, redux.
