Oneida are gearing up to release Expensive Air, their new album and the follow-up to 2022’s Success. They shared lead single “Here It Comes” back in May, and now we have another one called “La Plage.”
“La Plage” is on Oneida’s darker side, complete with psychedelic surf-punk guitar licks, fiery blasts of drums, and some bastardized French. “That’s a tune that we just kind of embraced the chaos on,” the band’s Bobby Matador explains. “It has a specific form, but are we going to follow the form? Maybe some of us.”
