Intercepted message

"From synth pop to new wave to disco, the shapeshifting rock band goes all in on its keyboard album".

"Given Dwyer's sonic shapeshifting as his band evolved from garage rock and psychedelia to punk metal and prog rock, a detour into synth pop is only so surprising, and on Intercepted Message he's filled the music with enough frantic energy and lyrical urgency that this clearly comes from his musical imagination, even if it explores new territory, and as a loving re-creation of the futuristic sounds of the past, it's well worth a listen".

"As a whole, Intercepted Message is a turbulent but deliberate antidote to what Dwyer calls "tired times," and perhaps closes the loop on a creative cycle that started with the first Osees album, 2020's Protean Threat ... If history is any indicator, though, fans needn't worry about waiting too long for its sequel. And in the meantime, this record is both a rocket and a time machine, fusing influences so thoroughly that the sum of their parts are barely discernible, and offering both comfort in the familiar and an escape from our current time it hurtles you into orbit".
