Ahhh,, the old BoneOil. Scott Hinman designed this classic banner/menu thingy for us back when the viscosity was low and clicks were from chicks. Go, explore, play, be transformed by the great Bone Oil that once flowed. |

the second Bone Oil cd, is in the freezer. Someday we may take it out and defrost. |

Best Guitarist (Making a Statement) Metroland Newsweekly, The Best Of 2001 "Sure, Tom Burre's guitar has six strings, and, yes, he's playing chords and writing songs on it, just like all the other guitarists in town, but somehow the noises that come out of his amp don't quite sound like anything we're heard before, anywhere. Add an intelligent, exploratory songwriting ethos and a bucket of vocal techniques that would make a team of Tuvan throat singers take note, and you've got a true trailblazer of sound and vision."

Best Freakout (High Brow) Best Of The Capital Region 2000, Metroland Newsweekly "Guitarist Tom Burre, bassist George Muscatello and drummer Todd Hinman combine a mindbending blend of styles and techniques in their presentation of Burre's compositions: Free-jazz tangents, slow-swinging Latin lounge, and vicious metal squall are shot through with Beat poetry, wry observational humor and political outrage to produce the Bone Oil sound. The influence of Frank Zappa is readily apparent, but so too is that of Mr. Bungle, Gil Scot-Heron, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Rage Against the Machine and David Torn. This is heady music for headbangers."

Best Local Album of 2000, (Capital Region of New York) J. Eric Smith, Metroland Newsweekly "Refreshing in its difference from anything that's come before in these parts, yet still bearing the very recognizable marks and ministrations of its creators- Tom Burre, George Muscatello, and Todd Hinman- all of whom are sublime performers in their own rights, and who bring out the best in each other in ways most bands can only dream of." |
