Jump Into The Gospel are poised to step up to the next level. When we saw them back in June their melodic pop showed significant potential, but the Jump Into The Gospel breakout gig took place a couple of weeks back when they impressed those who came to see them open for Cloud Nothings at The Studio at Webster Hall . Last week at Pianos , I saw them again and the development of the band was striking. Lead singer Louis Epstein has mastered his stage manner and the band, which includes members of Holy Ghost and [...]
![CLOUD NOTHINGS, BLEEDING RAINBOW HIT THE STUDIO AT WEBSTER HALL [PHOTOS]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4027422_lg.jpg)
Photo credit: Erica Carpiniello With the Studio at Webster hall completely packed last Thursday, it seemed as though just about everyone in New York had the same good idea. Considering that this was Cloud Nothings' first NYC show since the release of the universally praised Attack On Memory , no one in their right mind would pass up the chance to see them perform at the beginning of a new album cycle and with some pretty impressive supporting acts. I've been to about five Cloud Nothings [...]
Cleveland's own Cloud Nothings will be releasing their 2nd LP, Attack on Memory , on January 24th via the Carpark label. The album was recorded by Steve Albini at his own Electrical Audio Studios. While Cloud Nothing-in-chief Dylan Baldi was creating Attack on Memory , he writes... "I more or less memorized every guitar solo on the best Thin Lizzy albums, listened to only The Wipers for about 3 weeks, and fell asleep to Black Sabbath every night." The LP is reportedly [...]

From loud rock anthems, to dance party beats, to soft indie-rock, I present my list of 20 CMJ Bands You Oughta To Know. Let the games begin. 1. Gotye Gotye (pronounced "gore-ti-yeah") is the musical work of the Australian Wally de Backer. Where the stage name comes from I don't know, but I do know that his handsome, anthemic electronic-pop could put a little spring in anyone's step. Showcases : Oct 20 2:00pm, [...]
While the summer is gone, I always look forward to the crispness of autumn. It's a time for changes, swapping tanks for sweaters, and flip flops for fun fall boots. While you may be pining for summer's music fest, you will be excited to know that with the passing of October brings another lovely event, CMJ. We are excited to be attending this year and wanted to share with your some of our picks for the 2011 festival: ANR Active Childe Ambassadors Art Vs. Science Balkans Black Taxi Blonde Summer Brick [...]
I first heard about Jump Into the Gospel from our good friend Abbey, who hosts a mean afternoon radio show at Virgin Mobile Live . WVUM had the chance to co-host on one of Abbey's shows last October and as luck would have it, my summer internship was on the floor above the VML studios. Naturally, I'd always pop my head in and see what Abbey was up to. I'd often see guys in tight pants and Converse roaming around on her floor, which contrasted with the usual suits and ties so it was obvious [...]
Get spiritual, holy, and divine with Jump Into the Gospel as they mark the end of their month long Pianos residency on June 29. And if you prefer breasts (women's breasts to be precise) to indie rock or if you dig both equally, you should be aware then that the free show is co-hosted by photographer Henry Hargreaves's book 3DD : "A Celebration of Breasts" (in 3D!) - now that's not very holy, is it? The band is getting some deserved attention lately so this is a good opportunity to check them out.

Greetings readers and viewers! Wow, it's good to be back at (the hypothetical) Cluster 1 headquarters.

After a journey to Sasquatch! with our staff, I have returned from shooting videos to finding and posting them here for your viewing pleasure. So, it's good to be back, but make sure you check out all our footage from Sasquatch! as well. Without further adieu…here's what's new. Premieres: W-H-I-T-E – [...]
![[Win This!] + New Video + Tour Dates : Jump Into The Gospel : Humvee Mansion](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3486323_lg.jpg)
The working parts of Jump Into The Gospel include touring members of The Drums and Holy Ghost!, and while 2012 , the latest track from their forthcoming record premiered yesterday, MOKB is going to throw you a little curve. First off, it's worth mentioning that the band with be hunkering down in the month of June for a residency at Pianos, so if you are in the New York area, on a Wednesday night in June, there are certainly worse things you could get yourself into. Secondly, we're going to share [...]
New to the downtown New York music scene but already making waves is Jump into the Gospel, fronted by Louis Epstein along with guitar player and back-up vocalist Ben Vescovi, bass player Lakis Pavlou, keyboard player Erik Tonnesen (toured with Holy Ghost), and drummer Chris Stein (toured with The Drums). Their irresistible tunes have brought [...]
Memorial Day is meant to be the holiday in which we do without the grand gestures associated with other holidays, like stuffing our faces, decorating our homes and yards with over-sized representations of capitalist deities like Santa Claus, and exchanging gifts we neither need or want (unless it's a Nintendo 3Ds). But when it comes right down to it, Memorial Day is just another excuse to have a day off in the early dawning of summer and to sleep in and, once more, fill our faces with the dead, burned flesh of animals. If you are the type, however, to [...]
![[MP3] Jump Into The Gospel: "Photovoltaic"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3471001_lg.jpg)
Jump into my arms. Dance into my heart. If you take the plunge, we won't ever be the same. And that's okay. It's all okay. How can I not go with more upbeat music today? Jump Into The Gospel - "Photovoltaic" [MP3] If you're in NYC for the Summer, Jump Into The Gospel is playing a Pianos residency this June.

Today's song is "Photovoltaic" by Jump Into the Gospel . The quintet is made up of frontman Louis Epstein, guitar player Ben Vescovi, bass player Lakis Pavlou (former bass player for Gordon Gano of The Violent Femmes), keyboard player Erik Tonnesen (toured with Holy Ghost!), and drummer Chris Stein (toured with The Drums). The band's dynamic musical ability talent is displayed in this single. It's a fun and excitable, 80's inspired, synthesized pop with thrilling guitar hooks and head bopping rock riffs.

Chris @ Daily Beatz Help I'm Alive - Metric (The Twelves Remix) When I need a little musical inspiration to put a little pep in my step, I almost always turn to the Brazilian DJ duo The Twelves. Their funky takes on some of my favorite tunes are sure to start an impromptu dance party in just about any setting. To say their upcoming set at Coachella is one of my most anticipated would be a gross understatement. [...]
"Flagship" - Jump Into The Gospel At once prickly and resounding, "Flagship" shows that even in 2010 there somehow remains a recognizable New York City rock-band sound. Certainly things have gotten more convoluted and diverse since the days you could trace a clear line from the Velvets to the New York Dolls to Television and the Ramones and Patti Smith, and the 21st-century alone has spawned a wide-ranging new generation of New York rockers (and note that "New York City band" does not equal "Brooklyn band," even though Brooklyn is of course part [...]
From New York City, Jump Into The Gospel are pretty much your quintessential New York City rock band; I mean that in the most complimentary way. Relative newcomers to the "scene" (they formed in late 2008) their recent four song EP oozes with great melodies, rock and roll guitars, and a pretty engaging front man, Louis Epstein. Flagship - Jump Into The Gospel Download more songs from the band's recent EP here [...]
Admittedly, when we first saw Bear Hands at the Village Voice Siren Music Festival this past summer, we didn't know what to think of them. We weren't "there" for them really (the laundry list of acts we were chasing from...
