J.T. IV Chicago, Illinois
A punk of the old order, John Henry Timmis IV was born in 1961 in the Chicagoland area and began his meteoric ascent to
a
mythic level of self-aggrandizement in the 70s.
Inspired by underground, proto-punk sounds, J.T. presented like the scabby young brother of Bangs and Laughner: born only to rock, his

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!

Sonic Youth is one of those bands where you easily run out of superlatives to describe what they created. This could've easily come off as a cynical cash-grab by a band that had broken up 11 years prior to the release of this record, but that's not what this is. Some of my favourite Sonic Youth instrumentals.
