MJ MJ Records just dropped another BOMBBBBBBBBBBB, mother fuckers! And this time, they turn’t-in it (((LOUD))). No joke, MJ MJ’s newest tape entitled (((LOUD))) by Andrew Jansen // Loud Sun is completely dried out and fried. Not in a heavy psyche or harsh noise way, no, but in the most mellow-melted moods this side of Bandcamp. So let’s get listing:
The feel of “Gold Again” grabs listeners like a tan that’s just getting darker, or more freckled. Cut with a strum, back beat, and harmonizing vocals, it’s perfect timing for each listen to flip over and even that brown out. Shit ain’t getting “Gold Again” until next summer. So just vegg on the vibes Andrew Jansen // Loud Sun drip down your spine like lotion that’s been in the sun, silky.
Second track “Running From” sounds more satirical to me, troll repeating that “everyone-hum-along” melody before the broken guitar-chord verse, chanting in minor, down-scaled notes, trying to purse both intent for majesty and possibly a pharmaceutical commercial for someone off-key. Fuzzy feels and “maybe this is blue” sounds emote speakers and ears like the same pop-crackle enjoyment of Pop Rocks packet mouth pour. Really, the only thing Andrew Jansen // Loud Sun is “Running From” is sounding too demographed of a sound, which is the only type Choco fuxx with, so :)
I’m not saying “Wayes” is a dislikable track at all, but without further listening to the full length of (((LOUD))), I think maybe the context is a bit off. Though, this is the whole part of that [three-track tease] MJ MJ Records beckons. So jam the most you can on these before Andrew Jansen // Loud Sun drops the mother-fucker load this September 1 on cassette and digital. Also, don’t forget the MJ MJ Records subscription deal too!!
