{"product_id":"onyon-last-days-on-earth-650076674690","title":"ONYON - LAST DAYS ON EARTH Vinyl LP","description":"German post-punk band Onyon scrambled our brains when we heard them, so much so that we signed them \u0026amp; reissued their debut cassette EP in June of '22. \"Last Days On Earth\" is the band's latest for Trouble In Mind. The oddball, synth-soaked world of Onyon is disorienting at first - the band's herky-jerky rhythms may operate in a familiar fashion to bands like Devo, or LITHICS, but Maria Untheim's woozy synth squiggles populate \u0026amp; punctuate the band's songs, flirting with the primitive cool of 80's minimal-synth and the wire-haired cretinism of 60s garage. Guitarist Ilka Kellner rages unpretentiously with edges torn \u0026amp; frayed, never afraid to unleash a spindly lead line over Florian Schmidt's rubbery bass lines \u0026amp; Mario Pongratz's stuttering drum patterns. Kellner \u0026amp; Untheim share vocal duties, but the real magic comes when the two sing together, voices merging in loosely harmonic gang vocals; one deadpan, the other slightly unhinged. The group's beguiling lyrics add to the mystique - inscrutable neu-world fables about egg machines, ghosts, worms that talk and urges to consume newspaper that ooze a rural, old-world understanding of life \u0026amp; the imperceptible spaces in between reality \u0026amp; fiction, transmuted thru a modernist sci-fi lens flare.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack List:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Alien Alien \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Talking Worms \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Egg Machine \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Goldie \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Two Faces \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Dogman \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Blue Lagoon \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Yahtzee \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Invisible Spook \u003cbr\u003e1.10 I Would Like to Eat the Newspaper \u003cbr\u003e1.11 O.U.T \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Mower\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trouble in Mind","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46545686462749,"sku":"TBMD182.1","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2236\/3463\/files\/4239927-3032647.jpg?v=1763332565","url":"https:\/\/experiencevinyl.com\/products\/onyon-last-days-on-earth-650076674690","provider":"Experience Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
