Jookabox From: Indianapolis, United States Indianapolis band Jookabox has decided to throw in the towel, and The Eyes of the Fly is their last cryptic transmission via Asthmatic Kitty on April 26, 2011. This recording is the final chapter in the history of a band as bizarre, anxious, and confusing as the music it makes. A band whose imagery echoes ghosts, zombies, decay, and the afterlife, inspired by life in the post-industrial land of white flight, now writes its own epitaph, carves its own [...]
Jookabox is touring the Western US this November with two new 73, before recording a follow-up to the wildly excitable Dead Zone Boys LP. The two 73, titled Import and Export , will be available for purchase on tour, then to the public in early December. Try the typically frenetic, and typically bonkers, Worms from the Import 73 below. They'll continue to post photos, cryptic messages and trippy videos of their journey, diary style, on their web-zone Jookabox.net . If you haven't yet picked up Dead [...]
On its third album of exhilarating psych-rock, Jookabox channels blues, hip-hop, folk, punk, Animal Collective's evil step-sister, and zombies for mostly compelling results. Led by Indianapolis-based songwriter/producer David Adamson, Jookabox (formerly known as Grampall Jookabox) has built a reputation for stitching together disparate elements from blues, hip-hop, folk, and punk in its Frankenstein-like quest to revive terrifyingly infectious psych-rock records from the remnants of seemingly incompatible genres. On its third full-length, Dead Zone Boys, the zombie-obsessed genre-hoppers once again showcase its unique eclecticism with an entertaining batch of freewheeling, nightmarish sing-alongs that always entertain and occasionally delight.

DOWNLOAD: Jookabox - You Cried Me (MP3) Jookax record release show (by Dave Evans) Asthmatic Kitty Records is representing in two neighborhoods of Brooklyn tonight (11/7). Sufjan's BQE movie screens one last time at the Bell House along with a performance by the Osso Quartet ( see review of the 92yTribeca show ). It's not clear if Sufjan Stevens will be there to introduce the film or not, though it seems reasonable that he would if he's in town. [...]
Jookabox is the name of local Indianapolis native David "Moose" Adamson's musical project. When he was in grade school, his uncle took note of his developing interest in hip-hop and loaned him a four-track. At first the beats came from instrumental sides of cassette singles, then from presets on his uncle's drum machine, and finally from his very own beat machine (a Christmas gift), the Yamaha DD-9. Dead Zone Boys [...]
The above video, which at once evokes the Halloween spirit but also transcends it, is from the brand new album Dead Zone Boys . Jookabox has let it loose on the world today. You can buy the CD for $10 by clicking here , or the LP for $14 here . Did we say the corresponding t-shirt glows in the dark? It does .
Desde Indianapolis, con sonidos vivaces y con un toque medio folk, Jookabox nos ofrece "You Cried me" , en lo que parecen los rezagos del recién pasado Halloween. Con Tom DesLongchamp en la dirección y Jessica Phoenix en la dirección de arte, el video de "You cried me" parece un gran acierto en tiempos en que los vampiros están en todas partes. Dead Zone Boys es el tercer y más reciente trabajo [...]
Tweet this video ___ Share on Facebook ___ Bookmark on delicious Jookabox ce sont 5 types et 1 fille d'Indianapolis qui font une musique assez dingue, dans le sens où ils mélangent des genres qu'on a pas vraiment l'habitude de voir mélangés, comme le rap et le glam-rock par exemple. Ou le r'n'b et la country. Tout ça se retrouve sur leur dernier album, Dead Zone Boys , ainsi que le frénétique et extatique "You [...]
Since it seems all of Portland is still basking in the Halloween afterglow, Jookabox 's latest video for "You Cried Me" seems appropriate. Plus, it's a great video. And a good song. The Indianapolis four-piece (formerly Grampall Jookabox) released its latest Dead Zone Boys today, an album supposedly steeped in zombie lore. Scary. But not as frightening as Jookabox frontman David Adamson having the word "Moose" attached to his name. And definitely not as horrific as Metallica ham-fistedly plowing through a couple of Kinks classics with Ray Davies. [...]
