Anyone else here like this band? I was introduced to this band when my uncle was playing one of their albums at his house, I thought it was really cool. Bought their album "Now I Got Worry" today, awesome stuff. It's like blues-punk, sorta. Think the Black Keys, but like, way fucking weirder...and harder.

JSBX is good stuff. I've got most of their records and I've had the pleasure of seeing them live twice. Their last record wasn't great, but you should definitely seek out Acme and Orange, they're both pretty sweet.

Great band. these guys remind of the vibe you get from EODM, but they were doing it long before Jesse the Devil. Orange is a great album.

Hmm, I gotta say that's the song I'm liking the least. Everything else is kick-ass, though. I need to get my hands on Orange now.

I got Now I Got Worry, which I haven't listened to yet and Extra Width which I thought was pretty bad.

I'm not very familiar with JSBX, but I once picked up a 12" single of theirs on a whim and to this day that inaugural spin was the most thorough workout that the low end of my stereo speakers have ever had.

The name of said single escapes me at the moment. I'll check it out when I get home and report back.
