Details:
The world''s a mess it''s in John Doe''s kiss. That was 30 years ago. It was true 20,000 years ago. Early homo sapiens hummed to themselves in caves when no one was listening, as they etched their life stories in petroglyphs into soft stone. They knew instinctively what we know now, that music will carry you away from the here and now into the now and forever.
Glass Half, the debut album by JUMBLE looks forward (and inward) with roots planted firmly in the bedrock of the last four decades of pop music. The arrangements are crisp but not formulaic, and the band''s guitar-centered sound is at once fresh and familiar. That the 10 tightly crafted songs represent a dialectic musing on change or the lack thereof (is the glass half full or half empty?) is probably irrelevant. From the first song, Saving Grace inspired in part by the 2008 presidential campaign of Barack Obama, to the final tune Undertow, a send off to the out going Vice President Dick Cheney, this album provides a surprisingly timeless snapshot of our times, or merely something to hum along with as you etch your life story in petroglyphs into soft stone.
