But unlike the stories surrounding the Thin White Duke, talk of the Black Duke has been slightly more muted; nothing of an exorcism in an L. But it is not difficult to see why Oxbow have chosen to play with the persona of the Thin White Duke in their title. Oxbow have always circled an obscure malevolence and carried themselves with an avant-misanthropy reminiscent of the Duke but without, of course, his fascistic politics.

Their debut record Fuckfest was, as Robinson tells us, recorded as a suicide note. What is gleaned from his vocal is both fascinating and disturbing but is made all the more so by the fragmentary way in which they are delivered. What is audible and clear is equalled by what is mumbled and hidden, creating layer upon layer of feverish intrigue.

This record is a sickness, a punishingly dark piece of music that never brings relief even in the quieter moments. In interviews from this time we see a drug-ravaged face, gaunt and malnourished from his diet of red peppers, milk and cocaine. It is not about an end-point but rather the feeling of suspended animation. There is no relief from the intensity and seriousness Oxbow circle, not even a relief brought by death. Instead, as listeners we are more like characters in a Beckett novel, waiting for a relief that never comes.

Their last record, The Narcotic Story , is their finest incarnation of waiting. It is Oxbow at their most composed, their most experienced and their most disturbed.

The rawness of early Oxbow is held in close proximity to a madness that has paradoxically gained in refinement and composure. But these sounds slowly fade and with them fades the momentary relief they bring.

And it is at this point that we were left waiting for The Thin Black Duke. If their discography is anything to go by, their intensity and sense of adventure has only gained, which would suggest that The Thin Black Duke might just be the scariest ogre of all.
