Check out the new video from San Francisco's heavy avant-garde rockers, OXBOW, for their track "The Night The Room Started Burning," from their recently released album, Love's Holiday -- out now via Ipecac.
Lead vocalist, Eugene Robinson comments:
Lyrically it’s a purposeful take on Johnny Hartman’s ‘The Day the World Stopped Turning’ but instead of the power of love to alter our proximal relationships it’s, in my mind, all about the incendiary nature of suchlike love. It fulfills specifically because it fills you with that which burns. And that’s something that absolutely no one slow walks.
