Title: This CD is why I can't listen to "Alternative" radio.
Review: Jawbox was the best band I never saw live. I was first exposed to them on "For Your Own Special Sweetheart" after reading a review in the local paper. It reminded me of my local favorite, The Jesus Lizard, except that J. Robbins can actually SING. I liked it so much I quickly went out to buy "Grippe" and "Novelty". Then "Jawbox" hit my CD player. At first listen I thought the band would soon be all over the media as the "Next Big Thing". This music makes everything else I listen to seem old and out of date. Songs like 'Iodine' , 'Excandescent' and 'Capillary Life' are so good it seems impossible that the rock and alternative radio stations somehow managed to overlook them. And now the band is no more. I guess I'll have to survive on the new Burning Airlines CD "Mission Control". Luckily, it too is excellent.
Is the review positive or negative?
