<div class="bbcode">San Franciscos Thee Oh Sees are heading back down under for Sugar Mountain Festival and a smashing of side shows through Australia, their spiritual home, this January.<br /><br />Whats the first thing you think of when someone mentions Thee Oh Sees? Probably their riot-sparking live show, right? Visions of a guitar-chewing, melody-maiming John Dwyer careening across your cranium, rounded out by a wild-eyed wrecking crew that drives every last hook home like its a nail in the coffin of what you thought it meant to make 21st century rock n roll? Yeah, that sounds about right. But it misses a more important point -how impossible Thee Oh Sees have been to pin down. Since Dwyer launched it in the late 90s as a solo break from such sorely missed underground bands as Pink and Brown and Coachwhips. (While Dwyer still records songs on his own, Thee Oh Sees is now a five-piece featuring keyboardist/singer Brigid Dawson, guitarist Petey Dammit, drummer Mike Shoun, and multi- instrumentalist/singer Lars Finberg of The Intelligence.) <br /><br />Catch Thee Oh Sees tearing Australia a new one this January 2012 <br /><br />(Source: moshtix)</div>
