“Where could we go / With so many holes?,” Jade Lilitri asks in the opening moments of “that’s what time does”, the latest single from oso oso’s new album, life till bones. Though his inquiries are into that are — as typical — of the anxious attachment relational kind, he and the band’s knack for filling in all of them fully with hook-driven, power-pop-indebted emo sap with crisp, Aughts indie rock creases is what keeps this listen brimming full of timelessness. “You said, ‘Need a little more from you,’” he sings at one point in it chorus. Maybe his patterns as a standup partner are inconsistent, but if this is what you get when you let your heart lose, it’s a perfect consolation.

oso oso’s life till bones will be released August 9th on Yunahon Entertainment LLC.
