Oneida (band)
Oneida is an American experimental rock band from Brooklyn, New York, United States. Their influences include psychedelic rock, krautrock, electronic, noise rock, and minimalism, but the overall structure and intent of their music is not taken directly from any of these styles. Common elements found in their music include improvisation, repetition, driving rhythms, antique and analog equipment, and an overall eclecticism.

Both of these songs consist of one repeated riff (with a few short interludes on ''Antibiotics''), which typifies the band's frequent use of repetition. Oneida's music can also be distinguished by the band's use of antique keyboards and anal ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
