Osiris The Rebirth

Osiris The Rebirth

Osiris The Rebirth is a Los Angeles-based group associated with progressive rock, rock and space rock. The project begins in 2007 as a continuation of an earlier band called Osiris, with the name Osiris The Rebirth chosen to acknowledge the 1987 version of Osiris and to reflect Egyptian mythology.

Formation and line-up

The group is formed around veteran space-rock musician Dave Adams, who is playing bass with Hawkwind tribute band Assassins of Silence before reviving the Osiris name. He first works with fellow Assassins founder-member Milo Black, and the pair rework older Osiris material while also developing new songs. The project later settles into a collective approach, with Adams and Black as core members and guest contributions used to add variety.

Style and influences

Osiris The Rebirth starts from a space-rock foundation with progressive rock elements, with the original blueprint described as drawing on the kind of sound associated with Warrior-era Hawkwind.

Recordings

The debut album, Remnants of Life, appears in 2009 and includes contributions from Nik Turner, Bridget Wishart and Cyndee Lee Rule. The follow-up, Lost, is released in 2011 and features Bridget Wishart, Cyndee Lee Rule and Jude Merryweather.
