ABOUT ABOUT

“Blending the cinematic sweep of Ennio Morricone with the twang of classic country and a sense of creeping malice that would make Nick Cave giddy.”  - WILLAMETTE WEEK

"What began as a duo in 2013 has swelled into the nine-piece act known as Roselit Bone, purveyors of twisted twilight country. Led by Joshua McCaslin—who possesses the midcentury showiness of Elvis and the revved-up vocals of Waylon Jennings— the group is nothing if not animated. The band's sophomore record, Blister Steel, falls somewhere between the spaghetti Western sounds of Daughn Gibson, big-band balladry and Neil Young's shadowy score for Jim Jarmusch's Dead Man. Roselit Bone's strength-in-numbers approach allows for a diversity of textures, from the nightmarish alt-Americana of "Leech Child" to the shuffling Tex-Mex of "Riders on The Wall." The result is decidedly filmic; you can see the saloon and the brawl that's about to break out playing behind your eyelids." - PORTLAND MERCURY

“Like Marty Robbins meets The Cramps, or a Goblin sountrack to a spaghetti western, ranchero fantasy meets greased up country in a magical reality.” - AMERICAN STANDARD TIME
