Review by: Andy Malcolm
Hey, Get Fucking Bent, do an LP! What a great song here, which is entitled “Face Mush”. It’s one entire side of 45rpm vinyl. Melodic punk. Man, the riffs. There are guys sort of harmonising but really it is just guys singing the same thing at the same time, and at one point a gruff guy comes in and they rip off Dillinger Four. There’s a really sweet bit. The bass is all bah bah bah baaaaaah! This is mid-paced good punk music at it’s best, like Fay Wray and Husker Du. I am well into this song, and as suggested not many words ago, this band is more than ready to do an album. So so awesome.
It is debatable as to whether Jean Claude Jam Band is any good as a name or not. Or as guys making music. This is that cheesey Americana punk that loads of bands are doing right now. This sounds exactly like Lucero. I’d rather listen to the Evening Rig. Although the longer this song goes on, the less huffy I get.
