The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Ura Acme

Review by Voodoo Tours

Ura Acme, the album by Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, is a wild ride through the world of rock and roll. The band's signature sound, blending blues, punk, and garage rock, is on full display here, with Spencer's howling vocals and scorching guitar riffs leading the charge.

The album kicks off with the explosive "Bellbottoms," a high-octane rocker that sets the tone for what's to come. From there, the band takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride through hard-hitting tracks like "Dang" and "Shakin' Rock 'n' Roll Tonight," as well as more experimental fare like the funky "Calvin" and the psychedelic "Greyhound."

Throughout it all, the band's energy never wanes, with Spencer's guitar work and the rhythm section of drummer Russell Simins and bassist Judah Bauer driving each song forward with a relentless force. The album's production, by Steve Albini and Jim Waters, is raw and unpolished, giving the songs a gritty, live feel.
