Oxes release new single "Orange Jeweleryist"
Oxes haven't put out a new album in over five years.
But the Baltimore punks have been working on new material since last summer, when they played a few rare live shows.
Friends Records posted one of their new songs today. Listen to it below.
"Orange Jeweleryist" is the second of two 12' singles that will be released by Africantape in May.
Drummer Chris Freeland has been spending his time since the last album at his Beat Babies studio helping other bands like Lower Dens, Double Dagger, and Height, who often collaborates with his brother Mickey Freeland, record their own material. Most recently, he recorded part of Wye Oak's "Civilian."

Darn, I just sold my old 12 foot gramophone at a flea market last year...
