The Eyes Of The Fly

jookabox has decided to throw in the towel, and 'the eyes of the fly' on asthmatic kitty is their last cryptic transmission. this recording is the final chapter in the history of a band as bizarre, anxious, and confusing as the music it makes. a band whose imagery echoes ghosts, zombies, decay, and the afterlife, inspired by life in the post-industrial land of white flight, now writes its own epitaph, carves its own headstone, and sings its swan song. may the funky frenetic compositions of jookabox rest in chaos as beautiful as that which they created. jookabox's fourth and final installment is about humans, worms, slime, and rotting flesh. humans as gross animals, oily and greasy. worms writhing underground. slime oozing and revealing true nature of things. moose spills lyrics of sign-reading and hidden unities glowering out of the opaque everyday confusion. he calls this 'glyphing' - as in reading the hieroglyphs.
