Abi Ooze - Run And Hide

  


  If you check out the Just Some Punk Songs 2021 chart you'll notice it featured a very fine track by Jaid Baisa (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2021/12/just-some-punk-songs-top-100-songs-of_26.html).

  If any of you actually clicked the link and checked out the chart you may now be wondering who the hell is Jaid Baisa! It's actually the real name of American punk musician and documentarian Abi Ooze who first came to my attention as a member of mega cool Hammond, Indiana band Liquids (https://liquids1.bandcamp.com/) and who went onto release a very fine 7" titled R.I.P. (https://abiooze.bandcamp.com/releases). 

  Given the ep's title, plus the fact that the Bandcamp page stated it was Abi Ooze’s first and last 7” release, it was assumed that would be all we'd be hearing from her. 

  Happily, the release of a new song on a compilation tape from Milwaukee label No Label suggests maybe there's more to come. The cassette is titled Introductory Rites, it features bands such as Total Sham, Easy Targets, Foil and others and it's available as a cassette & name your price download here :  https://nolabel3.bandcamp.com/album/introductory-rites

  The Abi Ooze track is short, catchy and every bit as good as anything on R.I.P. and it's called Run And Hide...
