Various - Until The Shaking Stops A Salute To Jawbox

Review by Beth Coleman

Until The Shaking Stops: A Salute To Jawbox is an impressive tribute album that pays homage to the influential post-hardcore band Jawbox. Various artists contributed to the album, each offering their take on a Jawbox classic. The result is a collection of songs that captures the spirit and energy of Jawbox while showcasing the unique styles of the contributing artists.

From the opening track, "Savory" by J Robbins, to the closing song, "Static" by Braid, the album is a non-stop barrage of raw, intense rock music. The artists on the album, including The Pauses, The Dismemberment Plan, and Jets To Brazil, all bring their own spin to the Jawbox songs they cover, making each track a unique listening experience.

One of the standout tracks is "68" by the band Into It. Over It. The song is a perfect example of how a tribute album should be done. Into It. Over It. takes the original song and makes it their own, giving it a fresh, modern sound while still paying respect to the original.

Summary by Beth Coleman

Until The Shaking Stops: A Salute To Jawbox is a must-listen for any fan of Jawbox or post-hardcore music. The contributing artists all bring their A-game, resulting in an album that is both a fitting tribute to Jawbox and a fantastic collection of rock music in its own right.
