Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Now I Got Worry

Genre Blues Rock Noise pop Punk

year: 96 - review: Where Orange had some awkward attempts at funk, Now I Got Worry is a raw bloozy workout, full of harsh guitars and barked vocals. The sound of the Blues Explosion is so fiery and alive that it overshadows Spencer's habit for campy posturing, and that's what keeps Now I Got Worry afloat. Once it's finished, it becomes hard not to second-guess Spencer's intentions, but the album is the closest the Blues Explosion have come to capturing their wild, intense live show on record.
