Freedom Tower-No Wave Dance Party 2015

New York City is a big place. A loud place. Some of that noise is music. And some of the music is Noise. Sucking it all in and turning it loose with prejudice, the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion takes a ferocious bite out of the Big Apple with their long-player, Freedom Tower No Wave Dance Party 2015, the first record of the new era that demands to be stopped and frisked! Like the best sides that percolated up from the Bronx, the Lower East Side, and Greenwich Village across the 1970s and '80s Freedom Tower is more than a high-octane dance party record, it is a document of New York City, a chronicle of grit and terror and love! Freedom Tower is a radical portrait of New York City set to the savage funkacide of the Blues Explosion, locked and loaded with the most deadly, predatory guitar riffs that primitive magnetic tape can handle.... from start to finish, Freedom Tower is over modulated, cooked with dirt, and finished in acid rain! Freedom Tower is packed with the kind of beats and rhymes that will make even the most reserved Walter Mitty jump back and say damn!
