Melody Maker: A Ass Pocket of Whiskey (PRESS, UK)
"No suprises here, but plenty of treats: Jon Spencer's
cochlea-piercing yelp at the close of "Snake Drive"; the humours hustlers' exchange
between Spencer and Burnside in "The Criminal Inside Me"; the murderous but casual
urgency that drives "Goin' Down South"" |

Fire*Eater's extraordinary frontman Stewart Lupton is back with a new band, Childballads.
But he remains unsure whether he's got it in him to find the success he always craved."

Interviews Regarding: Bring Me The Head of Jon Spencer

TEXT: "Tim saw the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion opening for the Jesus Lizard and said Spencer played some harp. At that time, we’d only played as Jack ‘O Fire a few times. Later, I met Spencer while I was touring with ’68 Comeback opening up for Boss Hogg. Spencer looked me over and asked if I was Jack ‘O Fire- like he was angry.

TEXT: "The video is about Jon Spencer who seems very dragged
down by society, he reminds me of something similar to Michael Douglas in the movie
'Falling Down' and as the video moves on, he starts to see random 'strange things'
in the world around him. It's all very B-movie and we think it looks extremely cool.
Jon is an absolute legend and from the video, plays a great character too! " |

NME: Albums of The Year 1998 (PRESS, UK)
COMPLETE TEXT: "17,
Push The Button, Money Mark (Mo'Wax). All of the
hop, with out being self-conciously hip. Money mark is madcap keyboard repairman
turned madcap creator of wonderously casual, deliciously unrestrained pop and vital
Beastie Boys collaborator. "Push The Button" is funky, groovy and joyous, his Old Skool report reads:
"Couldn't do much better."" |

Vox: Push The Button [Review] (PRESS, UK)
TEXT: "Three albums on from those days, Money Mark has
blossomed from the cheesy, breezy keyboard king of the Beasties' hip little empire
into a sputtering engine of garage rock, '70s soul and Lord knows what else. And
the results are quite marvellous."

SHORT ARTICLE (TEXT): "Russell Simins plays the drums and Sean
Lennon plays bass. There was no logic to the video. This man was telling me a war
story. He was supposed to cross the channel and he didn't really wanna go, so he
tied the wheel up to make the boat go in a big circle. So I did the same with my
car."

in my touring band, which are some players from Cat Power and some from Jenny Lewis’

who plays drums in my band. I imagine maybe I’ll make a record more with those guys
and maybe with Tom Rothrock."
