jacki o motherfucker
 
man, ive been listenin to these guys a lot today and i remember how they used to be one of my favorite bands, and yknow what, i still fucking love them. how come this band seems to have been so forgotten? they had everything, the best parts of psych, noise, folk, even hip hop, not to mention valley of fire totally ruled and was completley underrated. can anyone profess their allegiance to this band to cheer me up and so i dont feel so alone?

touch me i'm sick 02.14.2008 12:59 AM

i haven't heard much of their stuff, but i was definetely into what i heard. if you could send me some that'd be cool.

Cantankerous 02.14.2008 01:22 AM

i like them! i don't know why.

atsonicpark 02.14.2008 03:03 AM

I wouldn't say they are "forgotten", they are REALLY well-known in this scene, I discovered them through amazon.com of all places.

They've got some pretty good stuff.

Everyneurotic 02.14.2008 12:00 PM

they are good, some recordings are better than others. not my favorite band at all, though.

Savage Clone 02.14.2008 01:18 PM

I opened for them once about a million years ago.
They were a lot better a few years later.
Defintely some good albums there. Their performance at the second DeStijl/Freedom From fest was great.

They totally slay on their split with Vibracathedral Orchestra. Some stuff by them is ace, some other stuff is meh.

I absolutely hate both sides of that. Awesome cover though.

I liked a few JOMF releases... I got a little bored after a while though. Maybe I should pick up on them again? What's good of the stuff from the last... ur... 4 years or so?

PAULYBEE2656 02.14.2008 02:49 PM

You're crazy. Both sides are fucking brilliant.
But i didn't really like the cover.

haha

I love 'em. I don't think they're forgotten so much as they've been a lot less active. Like, A LOT less.

batreleaser 02.14.2008 11:07 PM

well, yeah not all their stuff is great. but a lot of their stuff is REALLY great. theyre by far my favorite of the new, what i like to call, 'hippie noise' bands, like sunburned, six organs of admittance, comets on fire (suck), etc...

problem is that almost the same happens to me with vibracathedral orchestra. its a problem because for instance their live sets and Versatile Arab Chord Chart is some of best things that i have listened. i ll listen to those again one day soon to see if that still stands.


Versatile Arab Chord Chart is a Vibracathedral Orchestra record.

[edit] fuck, now i get, you're talking about VCO.
sorry

SYRFox 11.02.2009 06:36 AM

I find their split with Vibracathedral Orchestra really awesome
I'm not too fond of the new one though - I think it's okay

batreleaser 11.02.2009 09:42 AM
