S-E-R-V-I-C-E – Who Are You Anyway? video / feature

Posted on November 30, 2018 by admin

“…the band has this to say about the song:

Soviet-era electronics and riotous guitar split open this fast, driving, wild rock song. Think the most far out Butthole Surfers song with a hook closer to Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Jilly’s urgent vocals demand to know “who are you anyway?” Her succinct response to the same question? “Not subtle.””

From and Inspired By, Episode #74: Jon Spencer

Posted on November 29, 2018 by admin

The latest episode of ‘From and Inspired By‘ is an interview with Jon Spencer discussing the Edgar Wright films Hot Fuzz and Baby Driver along with the new album Spencer Sings The Hits.

“Musician Jon Spencer and the attendant Jon Spencer Blue Explosion were college radio and underground faves long before director Edgar Wright used the Blues Explosion’s “Bellbottoms” — from the band’s 1994 album, Orange — to blow open the beginning of his film, Baby Driver. Spencer’s been making music for decades now, going all the way back to the days of Pussy Galore.

However, Spencer’s profile has definitely been raised by Baby Driver, and so we were super-thrilled to finally be able to talk with the musician about that movie, as well as Hot Fuzz and his first-ever solo album, Spencer Sings the Hits.” – fromandinspiredby.com
