The Previous' return to the horror-filled high school halls of yesteryear. A requiem for a "loser" named Dennis Bland, this project blends laughs and laments in an aggressive "pop" atmosphere that "snaps" and "crackles" as well. AJ: Vocals & Guitar "Every one of these songs is a polished & sparkling gem. The infectious tuneful music is played with punk enthusiasm & pop polish." - Matt Love, The Mattress, Olympia, Washington CD: $15

(1996) The band's most ambitious studio endeavor to date. Written in 1989, and in and out of production since then, it is the chronicle of a particularly dark night of the soul and features thirteen songs interwoven to create a unified song cycle that showcases the band's versatility as well as Andras Jones' muse at its wittiest and most impassioned. Recorded in Boston by Mike Deneen (producer of Aimee Mann and Letters To Cleo), The Hard Feelings is a lush and intimate wallow for young lovers. Andras Jones: Vocals & Acoustic Guitar "In a world of bombastic riff and groove this CD is an invitation to something else. I listened to it alone in the pre-evening grey and drifted into dreams of love and loss. It is the sort of record I would only recommend to someone I trust." -K. Coalinga, Freelance DJ, New York

This recording delves into the political arena from a mystic revolutionary standpoint. Inspired by the 100th Monkey Project organized by Rick Springer, this is both one of Mr. J & the P's most popular and most misinterpreted recordings to date. It also features a 32 page fact-filled graphic novel by Salt Lake City artist Joseph Briggs. Andras Jones: Vocals & Acoustic Guitar "Recorded live in May '92 in downtown Los Angeles, this album crackles with energy and passion. Mr. Jones walks a delightfully fine line in delivering songs with social impact, never preachy, filled with imagery, wit and honesty" - Kevin Slick, The Splatter Effect, New York CD: $15 |

A powerful statement about artistic integrity in the face of the hypocrisy and cynicism of the record industry. Driving rhythms and snarling guitars mix with harmonica and violin to generate an ironic atmosphere for Mr. J's dissatisfaction. Produced with Earle Mankey (The Beach Boys, Concrete Blonde). Andras Jones: Vocals & Acoustic Guitar Engineered by Earle Mankey "Some thirty years ago, people flocked to California. Now people are getting the flock out. This could be the soundtrack to that growing un-exodus - the flipside downside to everthing The Mamas and The Papas ever stood for as seen through the eyes of a struggling band..." - M.K., Sound View, New York CD: $15 |

* Spew is Dan Bern & Bill White Acre |
The music on this particular collection is neither lounge nor grunge, but rather what I like to call "lunge" music - that is, songs and performances which leap out at you, demanding your attention. Sometimes it can be as soft as a kitten's tail. Other times, it's as if someone is sharpening a pencil in your ear. Either way, this CD is your passkey to wondrous, far-away places where you'll meet lots of new and interesting people. Some will say the right things and win you over immediately. Others will sneeze food out of their nose and onto your sleeve and you'll never want to see them again. Yowza! CD: $15 " Suprisingly cohesive, this compilation pulls together independent acts from across the country and from all over the musical spectrum. Spew scores a hit right off with their supercharged, radio-ready "Fascist"...Other highlights are the Costello influenced Serene Dominic...and Bill WhiteAcre, who invokes the spirit of Dave Matthews with both his soulful guitar and soft spoken vocals. Are any of these guys going to be huge? I dunno. In the event that they never become superstars, it would be a damn shame to let these folks slip away unheard." - Louis Parsonovich, Pandemonium, Tacoma, WA |
