Though the guitar is often sloppy and frantic throughout this track, it certainly adds to the chaos Drive Like Jehu so successfully brings into fruition. The guitar is just so distinguished and has a sound which shows a combination of virtuosity, passion, and sheer terror which so few guitarists can find the perfect balance of. In many ways, Drive Like Jehu gave way to a movement within rock known as “math rock” which concerns itself with crazy time signatures and lead guitar work that was constantly present in Drive Like Jehu’s work.

Drive Like Jehu add Flamin Groovies, Holly Golightly, Martin Rev, The Spits, and The Schizophonics to All Tomorrow’s Parties 2.0!
Drive Like Jehu announced their brand new additions – bolstering an already impressive line-up of The Gories, The Monkeywrench, and Soulside – to All Tomorrow’s Parties 2.0 today in a post via the band’s Facebook:

“Besides the scotch egg placed under my pillow every night by room service and the late night access to adult programming on tv, I am really looking forward to seeing every second of every band and talking to everyone in attendance personally at great length. I can’t wait to see Roy Loney sing ‘Have You Seen My Baby’, Bruce Brand bash skins, and what the Spits will be wearing” wrote Drive Like Jehu’s John Reis.

The band will post a new announcement every Tuesday in the run up to the April 22nd-24th festival – so keep checking back; there’s so much more to come!
