Whatever is old can be new again. So, is
true for the latest release from Jesus Jones. Primarily know in the late
80s as a driving force in the British techno/dance/punk flavored genre
of music, Jesus Jones has been able to keep their identity of music and
tweak it for a new millennium of listeners. Being able to evolve with the
times and with the high-speed turnover rate in music popularity is essential
in maintaining longevity and credibility. With a lot of bands being able
to keep the two elements in harmony is sometimes impossible. Fortunately,
with this album it seems evidently a success. As always the band's high
energy shows through on their songs. The album from beginning to end is
nothing but energy. They have held true to their hard guitar, synthesized
techno punk driving music they are known for. The album actually has a
harder edge than what some might remember of Jesus Jones, but an edge that
easily can keep them afloat with the genre of music today. For a child
of the 80s reliving musical memories, or the alternative lover, this album
is a must listen.
