  • I think he is getting unfair criticism due to his non- traditional approach to the blues but he does kick ass. He brings to mind

    another artist with a a very different kind ( from Spencer )of off kilter blues sound who may have also been dis-approved by

    blues purists. His name was Captian Beefheart.

  • I think people are dumb who try to say jon spencer is trying to be the next authentic bluesman and carry over the spirit of the blues. jsbx are first and foremost a punk/ indie band in my eyes just with blues infused, not a bad thing, those are the things adding up to this sensibility.

  • @ouzo6000 Blues was about expression! I agree with you totally. most of the "purist" blues I hear many people imitating these days...well it's dryer than my empty glass of a double whiskey i need to enjoy that crap.

  • It's a God damn shame someone stole that theremin.

  • thats retarded

  • ...asswipes...everything comes from the blues...this is a punk band...blues was the first punk

  • It's like Jon Spencer is possessed and taunted by the spirit of Robert Johnson.

    Awesome band.

  • This is not a blues band.... it's a blues EXPLOSION!!!! Get it? "Land mine" is to "soldiers" as "Blues Explosion" is to "blues bands"

  • @ouzo6000

    It's a sub-genre of blues called 'dirty blues', dan melchior, bob log etc. kind of started with beefheart and tom waits etc.
