The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion – This Is Not a Love Song, France: Review

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - This Is Not a Love Song, Nimes, France (29 May 2014) by  Anthony Batista (toniomodio.com) “Pour réveiller de tout ce psychédélisme et shoegaze ambiant, après un set un peu mou de Moodoïd, The John Spencer Blues Explosion est la solution ! A trois sur scène, ils font plus de bruit que toute la bande d’Anton Newcombe ! La tension est palpable, tout juste percée par les furieux riffs de Judah Bauer. On s’inquiète même que la batterie ne survive pas aux coups de Russel Simins!”
