JIM JAMES "uniform distortion"
release date: 29th June 2018
chart highs: none
frontman for Kentuckian band My Morning Jacket...
fourth or fifth solo set...
along with the Shaggy/Sting album, this is one I wasn't confident about
listening to, was dreading the distortion on it being something I would dislike
after the initial listen...
melodic, yet rocks enough to be called rock (alt-rock) in places...
hearing the distorted grunge of Crazy Horse and Jack White, the sonic sounds of Sonic Youth
and of course, the similarities of My Morning Jacket also...
he released a companion set just a month or two ago called "uniform clarity"
which contains acoustic versions of the songs, looking forward to getting that one
in the mail over the next week or so....
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
