The Olivia Tremor Control - I'm Not Feeling Human (Peel Session)
When a musician dies, they leave behind an aural legacy - songs that serve as eternal reminders of what this person did when the microphone was on. This legacy isn't always difficult to pick out. Sometimes it's present in virtuosic mastery of an instrument. Sometimes it's complex composition. Sometimes it's just a voice - capable of bypassing your nervous system and flexing your muscles on its own. Before his sudden passing , nothing Bill Doss did was nearly that obvious. He could clearly play a guitar quite well, but he hardly ever let it rip, be it [...]

Olivia Tremor Control: “A Place We Have Been To” (R.I.P. Bill Doss)

Aug 1, 2012, 2:30pm Reselect.com
Olivia Tremor Control: “A Place We Have Been To” (R.I.P. Bill Doss) R.I.P. Bill Doss Yesterday was another sad day in the world of music, although you might have missed it, since this wouldn't quite get the coverage of, say, Whitney Houston's death. But in the world of quality music, this was bigger: Bill Doss of the Olivia Tremor Control was found dead yesterday, with no cause of death yet given (or known). Doss co-led the group with Will Cullen Hart, and was responsible for their sunnier, more melodic songs, with his fittingly "sweet" vocals, while Hart represented the more experimental workings of the band.
