Welcome to the Blog and News of Alternative Rock Band OPOSIUM

Richard "Mr Hair" McLester of Oposium has been composing, recording and producing a new masterpiece, with the initial title of "Song 139".

The song has been described in high esteem as being "brilliant, incredibly powerful and epic", "exciting and intense", and their drummer, David Waller, writes "can't wait to play it live".

Due to the release of the band's debut album Life Under The Sun earlier this year by major distributors HMV, Oposium will be focusing on writing some new material, with "Song 139" and "Everything Is Now" in mind, continuing to define what their answer is to - what is alternative rock music!?

"Song 139", which is currently in its last stages of production, will be performed during Oposium's future concerts for all to enjoy.
The current title is a concept, but Oposium is open to any suggestions. The song may eventually feature on the band's MySpace, www.myspace.com/oposium, as well as may be made into a future music video!
Keep your eyes (and ears) peeled!


Peace Always,

The rumor that Mr Hair has just come out of rehab is false! Despite being recently snapped looking all the worse for wear, Mr Hair would like to categorically deny all rumors linking him with a stint in rehab. In a statement, Mr Hair's spokesman said;

"All rumors of rehab, or that Mr Hair has suffered sudden hair loss are all completely unfounded. The picture that seems to have been the origin of such a rumor was taken completely out of context and the singer was simply overdressed to compensate for the recent cold weather. Richard is in good health and will be appearing on stage with Oposium this coming weekend. Again, we would like to stress that no rumor linking Mr Hair with rehab is true."

Clearing out the attic, artist Rob McLester chanced upon some original Warhol relics. As if this wasn't spectacular enough, on closer inspection Rob realised that the pictures depicted none other than Oposium's very own Mr Hair! The paintings will be auctioned off for charity by Sotheby's late October.
