JAMC used to bore me a little too. I get that. Honestly I really wanted all of their music to be as grand and epic yet still searingly loud as "Just Like Honey." It took me a while to see the charm of their music. Much like Spiritualized and Spacement 3, there's a lot of "sameness" to JAMC, and at first it can sound a bit plodding. But soon I started to hear the Beach Boys in their music, drowning in an ocean of reverb, and that just fascinated me.
So even though a lot of their music sounds the same, it doesn't matter because the music's awesome. Awesome + awesome = MORE awesome. But they're also one of those bands that I like to hear build a song up out of and alternate takes (like the Lips in the '80s and early '90s). A lot of the songs start out with the same elements but end up working on totally different levels. I think this is why I like listening to the Power of Negative Thinking and Barbed Wite Kisses and 21 singles. I like hearing the JAMC process. Kickass fuckin' rock band man. |

Nice. A pretty sweet Alan Licht show from about three weeks ago is available from nyctaper.com.

Yeah, probably not for real. I know he loves Ween, because he and I were both like, "yeah Ween!!" for a good page before he said something that made me go "what the hell?"
I'm not in a very Weeny place at the moment. I've actually been struggling to find shit that fits my mood lately. I went through a mega Beatles phase that lasted a few weeks and actually had me conversing with my father for a while. Since then I had some PJ Harvey time and have otherwise been just scrolling through my iPod looking for something to make me happy. I usually stop on Aphex Twin after going through the entire alphabet. Man, what's good y'all? |

I LOVE New Day Rising big time. awesome record.
JAMC? not so much. Their music lacks something I cannot place, something that would draw me in more, instead, it lulls me to boredom.... I guess it was "noisy" guitar rock for people who think distortion is the pedal the Edge uses on EVERY FUCKING U2 SONG EVER........

I'm in the market for some new electronic shit. It's a new year, usually those guys are on the ball, and the techno, house and footwork shit is dropping like bombs by February.
