jesus lizard - club

CHUNKLET doesn't release many records, but when they do, you need to grab them......  


so when i heard they were releasing a live album of one of the JESUS LIZARD reunion shows i was beyond thrilled........ 


i saw JESUS LIZARD at pitchfork a couple of years ago and nearly died of excitement (and well the frantic moshing from the crowd)...... 


JESUS LIZARD are one of those bands that nobody else quite measures up to..... no band plays raw, loud, in yer face post punk noise like they do.......  


and their new lp, CLUB, is a proof of that, sounding nearly as good as a studio album.....  think of it as the Jesus LIzard best of comp that you'll never see released....cause great bands are bands that dont need greatest hit collections....every JESUS LIZARD lp is essential......  and CLUB is no different.....


permanent records has this to say of the new live lp, out this week.......
 In 2009 our lucky little lives were blessed with the second coming of the one true savior.  No not Him, the Jesus…Lizard!  That's right folks, the mighty Jesus Lizard took another swing at it after being defunct for many years with a string of shows that made believers of all who bore witness and restrengthened the faith of those who knelt at their altar in the early days.  And wouldn't you know it, our chums over at Chunklet (long time true believers) took it upon themselves to license the rights from the live DVD that was filmed and release a ONE TIME ONLY PRESSING 2xLP of the show.  This show took place at The Exit/In in Nashville, TN on July 14th of 2009 and the set list is a monster collection of 22 heavy hitters from the Jesus Lizard back catalog, including their genius Chrome medley and their Dicks cover!  The sound quality is amazing, the musical chops mind blowing and the energy pouring out of these grooves proves this was an unforgettable concert.  Don't sleep on this one cuz this is it, grab this gate fold double LP now and own a stunning document of the breath taking ability of one of the greatest bands in a live environment.  This is most certainly an essential double live album just in time for Christmas, we mean Lizmas.  Do you think you'd like that? Do ya, mouthbreather? Do we even need to say this comes with our holy-ist of recommendations?
