Three dudes from Chicago, US, make up the powerhouse that is Oozing Wound. With Zack on guitar and vocals, Kevin on bass, and Kyle on drums, this trio has a burning desire to slay through their music. Their sound is raw and intense, blending elements of punk, metal, and noise into a sonic assault that will leave you begging for more. Influenced by bands like Dryad, BIG|BRAVE, and Ulthar, Oozing Wound's music is not for the faint of heart. Prepare yourself for an electrifying experience as *Zack*, *Kevin*, and *Kyle* unleash their musical fury upon the world.
Oozing Wound's unique blend of genres sets them apart from other artists in the scene. Drawing inspiration from diverse acts such as EYES, Sightless Pit, and Theophonos, they create a sound that is both captivating and relentless. With each member bringing their own distinct style to the table - whether it's Zack's blistering guitar riffs or Kevin's thunderous bass lines - Oozing Wound delivers a performance that will leave you in awe.
If you're a fan of bands like Oxbow or Spirit Possession, then Oozing Wound should be on your radar. Their music possesses a raw energy that can only come from true passion for their craft. Tracks like "Telos" and "FACS" showcase their ability to

We Cater To Cowards builds exponentially on its predecessor High Anxiety’s experiments with dynamics and unusual instrumentation While songs start with Zack Weil’s arrangements, they mutate in the practice space when the monstrous rhythm section of Kevin Cribbin and Kyle Reynolds forge the pieces into grotesque new shapes. From the complex rhythms of “Crypto Fash”, to the Beethhoven-inspired slabs of sound of “Total Existence Failure”, the arrangements are inventive and unexpected. Horns from longtime friends Thyme Jones and Bruce “Hesh” Lamont add depth and texture to Weil’s rippling distortion throughout, at times subtly blended into the mix only to erupt into a full skronk solo on “Old Sludge”. The complex arrangements and unexpected sounds elevate and enhance the group’s searing sonics without losing its focus. We Cater To Cowards is the band’s most daring and devastating album; it is a refreshing and exhilarating mutation of genres forging Oozing Wounds’ own distinct path. As Weil aptly puts it: “we don’t care about propriety or the sanctity of TRVE METAL or any of that bullshit.” Thank God they don’t. For those who do care to dig a little deeper, We Cater To Cowards is a deeply rewarding pummeling good time.
