OILMEN are downtown economists, making stripped-back-down-low music for the minimalists out there. Champions of rhythm and skronk, they are variously enamoured of post-punk, hard bop, dirty blues, hip-hop, grime, straight-up pop, no wave, new wave, R&B, and noise rock.  The trio features Carruthers on baritone guitar & vocals, Zak Weppelin on drums & vocals & BB Cash on sax vocals.  Their debut 12″ ‘Tremendous Menace / Expect Excellence!’ is due to be released on Adaadat on April the 23rd and today they are our chosen organ Thing of The Day.
