Reviews
Uncut (p.99) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[A] freewheeling blend of raga rock, clockwork folk, Black Sabbath impersonation and '80s arcade game soundtracks....THE WEDDING bridges high- and low-brow without ever being anything less than exhilarating." Magnet (pp.105-106) - "Oneida's most cohesive and beautiful record to date. It's a menacing, baroque/psych masterpiece that will reward the faithful..." Mojo (Publisher) (p.105) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[A]n album as dense as grey matter thanks to queasy string arrangements, fever-spiked keyboards and guitarist Hanoi Jane's migraine-intense riffing."
Additional information
There is an urban legend about this album: some claim that THE WEDDING was inspired by the melodies of an enormous music box built by the members of the band. True or not, a music box might seem a strange avatar for a group of guitar-heavy art rockers like Oneida. But the image serves as a useful metaphor for this methodical, experimental, and altogether lovely album. That's not to say that THE WEDDING doesn't rock. "Did I Die" bangs along over fuzzy riffs, with lead guitars snarling all the way, and on "Spirits" the raga-inflected melody floats over insistent guitar figures and driving drums. Even on quieter numbers like the opening track, "The Eiger," where Oneida incorporates a string arrangement, or the mid-tempo ballad "You're Drifting," guitar and drums remain central. What is ultimately experimental about this album isn't so much the extreme shifts in dynamics and tempo, though there are plenty of those. It is Oneida's ability to do indie rock differently. Oneida's interest in repeated melodic figures and shifting time signatures, which are pushed further in some of their previous work, are here employed to create songs that are both emotionally affecting and musically compelling. Oneida are true originals.

    I had been searching for a reasonably priced brand new Lawrence of Arabia 4k Steelbook (which is rare to find and sells out quickly) and was happy to find it at this store. Customer service (Caeden) was exceptional at answering my questions and reassured me in my decision to purchase with details such as confirming the UPS and the delivery process to Australia. It arrived on time, well packaged in bubble wrap, in perfect condition and exactly as described. I highly recommend.

    Objet (CD) bien reçu et conforme à la description et parfaitement emballé. Délais de livraison assez longs (3-4 semaines), mais tout à fait acceptables étant donné la provenance des USA et surtout : les frais de port gratuits. Et des prix très attractifs et honnêtes. Ça vaut largement le coup ! Vendeur très sérieux et digne de son statut de pro. Je recommande ! Merci.

    El CD vino sellado y es completamente nuevo. Llego en excelentes condiciones, nuevo, aunque el empaque no tenía mucha protección (era un sobre de cartón), pero fue suficiente. El envío demoró, pero sin exceder el límite. En todo caso, el precio del envío fue bastante económico. Estoy muy contento y recomiendo a este vendedor. Sus precios son razonables y la calidad y aspecto de los productos son como los describe.
