Hmm….OK. You mightn’t like it, but you cant say its not music.

Its funny, Jinx seems to elicit passionate responses both for and against. People who dont like him seem to go out of their way to criticize him, rather than to just ignore him. But, to each their own and all that.

@Paul: point taken, it is subjective.

@roosta: Random can be good but I just don’t define what he does as music.

@Noel Rock: Must check out some of their older stuff as tbh, I haven’t heard it.

Jeez, I knew Rilo Kiley would come up here: only reason their new album should be held in any esteem is because of their past works. Go get their old albums instead.

Cannot understand why people seem to like Jinx Lennon. Itâ€™s random nonsense.

Since when was random a bad thing? Or nonsense for that matter? Both those words mean fun to me., and Jinx is lots of fun.

Also, it’s a 2006 album, but there’s an album called Out of the Angels by a band called Amusement Parks on Fire that’s well worth a listen.

Anthony: it’s called “subjectivity”

They are not new but if you do not have a copy of The Kleptones ‘A Night At The Hip-Hopera’ you can pick it up on their site. Its a couple of years old but never fails to knock the socks off people when they hear it for the first time.
