Oxbow is an experimental rock band from San Francisco, California. Founded in 1989, Oxbow plays a blend of noise rock, avant-garde jazz, Contemporary classical music, and blues. The band has released six studio albums. ==History== Oxbow began as a recording project. In 1988 bandmates Eugene Robinson (vocals, lyrics) and Niko Wenner (guitar, bass, keyboards, music) wrote songs with an approach decidedly different from their band at the time Whipping Boy. Wenner concocted an underlying musical architecture for his abrasive-then-plangent music, through use of arch form and musical palindromes unusual in the noise music genre the band was often placed. This organizing structure later grew to encompass the second Oxbow recording as well, and drew relationships between the two. For his part Robinson changed his vocal approach to include in-the-studio improvisations and extensive vocal multi-tracking. This first record, titled ''Fuckfest'' has drumming split evenly between Greg Davis and Tom Dobrov. Dan Adams (bass in Oxbow, drums in Whipping Boy) joined immediately on completion of the first recording. All but Davis and Dobrov were at various times members of Whipping Boy, Wenner and Dobrov had been bandmates in the hardcore band Grim Reality〔Ankeny, Jason "(Oxbow Biography )", Allmusic, retrieved 2012-07-17〕〔Blush, Steven (2001) ''American Hardcore: A Tribal History'', Feral House, ISBN 978-0922915712, p. 130〕〔Pehling, Dave (2002) "(Uneasy Listening: Oxbow drags experimental rock into the heart of darkness )", ''SF Weekly'', September 11, 2002, retrieved 2012-07-17〕 Dobrov departed after the band's 1995 European tour, but performed with Davis as guest second drummer for the studio recording of "Shine (Glimmer)" on the 2002 album "An Evil Heat."〔Wenner, Niko (1995) "(Tour Diary: 1995 (Niko) )", retrieved 2012-09-15〕〔Oxbow (2012) "()", ''http://www.facebook.com/OXBOW'', August 1, 2012, retrieved 2012-09-15〕 The first album from Oxbow, ''Fuckfest'', was released in 1989.
