Oliver Oat - Juniper Resin (2019)

Out of the darkened poison of the midnight forest, the eyes peered out to see the world in a different state. The colors of infections, in mind and body, had taken over the successive relevance to a cutting board made of plastic and not of organic dead plant matter. The eyes of the soul, stepped out with one appendage, feeling a pseudo beam of light that scorched with truth, or the lack there of. Intransigent and never in the right parking lot of life, the eyes rolled from side to side, afraid.

So, the eyes, white and bold with wide array of confusion and trepidation – pulled back inside its cocoon of safety and comfort.

Melodrama is where OLIVER OAT is momentously grand. The quintet from the Netherlands, makes a full featured movie out of a 4 minute song. And ‘Milk And Cigarettes’ isn’t their only offering that is so cool, calculated, manifesting, and full of contrasting vigor.
