***In The Red proudly announces the fifth installment of their JON SPENCER BLUES EXPLOSION jukebox singles collection series. This single marks the ten-year anniversary of the release of the first ITR jukebox siingle released in 1992. Like its predecesSors, Jukebox Single # 5 features two songs exclusive to this singleóthey are not on the band's upcoming Plastic Fang album. "Ghetto Mom," the A-side, is a wailing punk number as aggressive as anything the band has ever recorded. "Do You Wanna Get It," the B-side, blows out the walls with a fuzz stomper featuring the keyboard finesse of none other than DR. JOHN himself! Both sides were produced by STEVE JORDANóthe man who produced and played drums for Keith Richards' solo endeavors. Needless to say, everyone involved had theri Rolling Stones obsessions fulfilled here.

***Formed in 1991 after the demise of Jon Spencer's seminal hatefuck band Pussy Galore, the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion has always included drummer Russell Simins and guitar ace Judah Bauer. Taking cues from rock, punk, R&B, garage, hardcore, and hip hop idioms, while transcending the limitations of each, the Blues Explosion created a new sound which they've spent the last 16 years honing and redefining. Their music is as deft and bold and life-affirming as the Meters, the Magic Band, or the Birthday Party.

Beginning in 1992, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion earmarked songs from their recording sessions for their Jukebox Single Series on In The Red. The singles, which were based on a similar series done by rockabilly legend Charlie Feathers in the 1970s, featured some of most incendiary, hyper-charged tunes the band ever cut. From their spastic take on Chain Gang's "Son Of Sam" to "Ghetto Mom" (the final single from 2002) these seven-inch sides always showcased the band's full-throttle punk rock side.

Now, for the first time, all five out-of-print singles have been collected in one place on Jukebox Explosion, along with eight previously unheard rarities from the band's early days that are every bit as action-packed, frantic, and furious.

Jukebox Explosion captures one of the most exciting, original, and influential bands to emerge in the 1990s at the absolute peak of their powers. If you dig rock 'n' roll music, this stuff is absolutely essential.
