OXES is an American instrumental rock band from Baltimore.[citation needed] 'OXES' is a part of what is known as "The Baltimore Rowdy Collective" which stages practical jokes, usually involving a confrontational and outlandish racket in public places.[citation needed]

Biography

Live shows

The OXES/Arab on Radar split 10-inch

[edit]

Prior to the release of their eight-track album OXXXES in 2002, the band put out a 10-inch record, billed as a split EP between OXES and Rhode Island noise-rockers Arab on Radar. The A-side of the record was performed by OXES. However, the B-side was also OXES—this time convincingly impersonating Arab on Radar.[citation needed]
