This is the first thing we recorded together as Oil On Canvas in July 2003. It was done live to 2-track with no edits, minimal gear and no preparation. We still adhere to the improvisational approach but have taken more care with the recording…

Agree it has some Osric Tentacles vibe with a mash of Hawkwind/Gentle Giant curve! Super!
