This is the third
solo music album from Jon Cohen. Jon is a veteran of the
Montréal music scene. He`s been a guitarist for: John Lennox,
JF Robitaille, The Social Register and The Dears. I never
heard his music before. I bought this out of sheer curiosity at Renaissance
Montréal (for only two Canadian dollars, feed me more). This is a short
& sweet EP (five songs = 23.44 minutes). After repeated listens I`m
impressed. Every song`s amazingly crafted. He likes to explore various styles;
song oriented lo-f indie with new wave elements (in order to
survive), lo-fi psychedelic pop (rhapsody in pink), an out
there / schizophrenic / psychedelic blues / rock lil number (weakness),
minimal yet melancholic song oriented bedroom pop music (blood on the
microphone), and a Joy Divisionesque indie / pop gem (is there
love in your heart). Different influences at work here: The
Beatles, The Byrds, Joy Division, David Bowie, Human
League and The Cure. Get your info here: http://thejcex.com/about/
