G.I. Jinx Mind Freak LP
These Montreal noise-mongers serve up a saucer full of space rock. Landing somewhere between SONIC YOUTH and MOON DUO, G.I. JINX blends screechy no wave with repetitive, drone-informed jams. Most songs hinge on a single riff or two, piped through multiple layers of fuzz. I’d be willing to bet the guitarist has a mean collection of boutique germanium stomp boxes. The vocals are delivered with a semi-lacsidasical coolness that begs for a Kim Gordon reference. Great art rounds out a record that will surely appeal to your friendly neighborhood acid casualty.
