Biography
San Francisco, United States (1988 – present)
The first album in 1989 combining the squall of bands like The Birthday Party with elements of free jazz and musique concrète from Oxbow, Fuckfest, met with international success and created a small but loyal following that has grown ever since.
Followed in 1992 by King of the Jews. The menacing The Balls in the Great Meat Grinder Collection also appeared in 1992, and after 1995’s Steve Albini-produced Let Me Be a Woman Oxbow signed to the SST label for 1997’s Serenade in Red, which featured guest vocals from Marianne Faithfull.
They released a split EP with the Italian band White Tornado in 1999, followed by An Evil Heat in 2002. The compilation Love That’s Last: A Wholly Hypnographic and Disturbing Work Regarding Oxbow arrived in 2006.
Wenner has also played with God and Swell.
The original lineup:
Eugene S. Robinson - vocals;
Niko Wenner - guitars, keyboards;
Dan Adams - bass guitar, keyboards;
Greg Davis - drums, percussion.
Former members:
Tom Dobrov - drums.

Oxbow will be performing with an orchestra as part of Supersonic Festival 2012. Expect strings, woodwinds, brass, operatic backing vocals and classically contained renderings of the Oxbow song book, featuring Eugene S Robinson and Niko Wenner from Oxbow and an Orchestra who will deliver songs new and old in a format unaccustomed to the blood and sweat of a typical Oxbow outing. The textbook definition of ONCE IN A LIFETIME.

Ehhhhh, I can't be bothered if it's coming to insults. Well done, you win.

A band that has little to NO blastbeats (Kiss the pig doesn't count) is considered grindcore by you? Are you a recent KoRn refugee or something?
-
EYEHATEMUSIC
Well I said that because it seems to be the genre they're mostly tied/linked with... I honestly don't know what genre they are, but grind is how I tend to tag them. But any band that could be said to be the "Oxbow of" obviously means it doesn't sit comfortably within said genre, just way too experimental be potholed. In my opinion anyways.

What Megantron said.

EYEHATEMUSIC
Today Is The Day is sort of the Oxbow of grindcore, I guess. But yeah, I agree.
