Jag Offs – Four Letter Words – CD (Recess Records) Less than basic punk rock 101 in music and lyrics. The entire release sounded like I was listening to a 33rpm recording being played back at 78rpm. - Mite Mutant...

The Jimmies – Let the Fat Men Plunder – CD (Panic Button Records) I liked the CD cover photo of the fat hairy belly of the guitarist and the hot Betty Page tattoo on his left forearm, so I thought I’d like the music. Unfortunately, this is just...

Jucifer – Calling All Cars on the Vegas Strip – CD (Crack Rock Records) Jucifer has caught the “We’re all stars now in the Dope Show,” Bandwagon and they are going on a hayride bound for hell. Jucifer creates depressing and barbiturate influenced imitation...

John Stuart Mill – Forget Everything – CD (See Thru Broadcasting) I can’t remember anything expect I feel like I listened to Beck on downers in a canteen and I keep repeating the line from one of the songs, “Cows go moo. Owl goes who. Someone’s got to...

Jimmy Johnson – Every Road Ends Somewhere – CD (Ruf Records) / Platinum Distribution) I saw Jimmy Johnson perform at the University of Dayton a few years back (I still have the poster) and it was awesome. Johnson was a true roots blues musician, and he had...

Jon Cougar Concentration Camp – Hot Shit – CD (BYO Records) Nasty! Rude! Loads and loads of fun shit! Speed of sound brash face-punching punk. Certainly, they get the ‘best band name of the decade’ award. There’s no bullshit here. Just straight on Punk...

Joshua – A Whole New Theory – CD (Doghouse Records) Toledo! Fuckin’ Toledo? Come on. I grew up in that shitty, rusting ghost town, and when I left (okay it was ten years ago) there wasn’t a goddam thing going on musically or otherwise. But here is this...

Jude – No One is Really Beautiful – CD (Maverick Records) Jude’s music is acoustical groove to the tenth power. Many of you probably have heard his hit Rick James, and while it’s a good song I enjoyed the tune She gets the Feeling which has a...

JeJune – This Afternoons Malady – CD (Big Wheel Recreation) I’ve heard of this band quite a bit, but this is the first time I’ve heard them. They play great emocore with duel, soft yet strong intertwining male and female vocal harmonies with swirling...

Jupiter Down – Jupiter Down – CD (Beluga Records) This is reminiscent of Tonya Donnelly from Belly and Throwing Muses, but with a lot more malice. Heavy, at moments poised on the edge of a groove. A few songs are a tad long, and a bit underdeveloped, with...

Jersey – The Battle’s Just Begun – CD (Fueled by Ramen Records) Jersey is a basic old school style punk rock band that seems to be heavily influenced by Rancid and ska music. You gotta love a band with a song entitled Glass Cock. Predictable, yet it...
