AJJ - Ugly Spiral: Lost Works 2012-2016 LP (Clear Vinyl)

Long before the shitshow of 2016, AJJ tried to warn us about what lurked beneath American civility. Abusers. Nazis. “Politicians too.” Since 2004, the folk/punk (not folk-punk) band has been a sort of desert prophet, emerging regularly from the 120° Arizona heat to take America to task for all the hypocrisies it won’t admit. White privilege, violent impulses, religious madness. All the colors of the flag. Over the last 15 years, AJJ have achieved incredible success solely on the back of their songwriting, and the uncompromising clarity of their lyrics
