Jim James: Uniform Distortion Vinyl LP
"I feel like there is this blanket distortionĀ on society/media and the way we get our news and information..." For his 3rd solo album (not counting cover projects likeĀ Tribute To),Ā My Morning JacketĀ frontmanĀ Jim JamesĀ addresses the chaos that exists in today's social media-driven world. The cover is a photo entitled "Illuminated Man" by Duane Michals, and it captures the theme of the LP well, with the opener, "Just A Fool," setting the musical tone for the tracks that follow: lots of fuzzy guitar licks, pulsing drums, and distorted vocals. Despite the dire subject matter, James sounds hopeful and energetic, and there are plenty of memorable hooks and melodies. Highlights include: "Throwback," "You Get To Rome," and the aforementioned first track.
