EL JESUS DE MAGICO - Klip Aught

Lets start with a re-cap of the discography of El Jesus De Magico. Theres the crust punk rental property destroying Scratch Acid-ish x-tendo jams of their first CD, and theres the underground Taiwanese jungle kick boxing circuit bending chants of their last LP. Theres the darker side of Flying Nun indie by way of Skin Graft on their Unclean Ghost single and theres the AM radio conspiracy theorist Kennedy family bad vibes occultism of their Funeral Home Sessions E.P. And now theres this...KLIP AUGHT, their 3rd single and 5th release. This record swings from Spacemen 3 to Jesus and Mary Chain to Dinosaur Jr to the Puddle to Mayo Thompson without a lot of effort. All of the weirdness is distills into a single that hangs around in the neighborhood of their earlier singles. A tight pop music take on a thousand-million little bits of twenty-five years of underground music, all kind of run through the energy you get from recording and practicing around ghosts, corpses, milk crates full of fan club vinyl and pictures of obscure American Aristocrats in a downtown funeral home in Columbus, OH. This is another excellent single by a band that continues to build a remarkable and confounding discography. - Columbus Discount.
