Osees | The Dream | Live Levitation Sessions (2021)
John Dwyer is pretty fucking cool for a guy who has so many songs with titles based on Dungeons & Dragons monsters (Carrion Crawler, Gelatinous Cube, Stinking Cloud, Minotaur, and Orc for example).
Osees a.k.a. Ohsees a.k.a. Thee Oh Sees a.k.a. The Ohsees a.k.a. Orange County Sound a.k.a. OCS a.k.a. Orinoco Crash Suite
The frequent name changes are explained by this quote from bandleader Dwyer: "It seems to aggravate the press, which to me is great. I have nothing but contempt for the music press."

Art forgery is the best crime tbh. It requires absolutely incredible artistic talent, technical skill, and attention to detail to make convincing fakes. Does anyone get hurt from it? No! The only people who suffer for it are the extremely wealthy who want the prestige of having original paintings in their own homes. It’s full of international intrigue and mystery. Perfect.
