Dead Luke is a Wisconsin-based one-man operation pumping out vinyl for Sacred Bones. "Jumping Jack Flash Drive" is a horribly renamed bedside synth-rock cover of the Rolling Stones' classic; it sounds like early Soft Cell or a less catchy Blank Dogs. It's a pleasurable listen, but fundamentally goofy. "Not Tonight" is murkier and more obtuse, and not just because it's not one of the most recognizable rock songs ever. It feels a little too subdued at first, before gradually building up to a siren-wail solo that overpowers both the rest of the song and all negative impressions that preceded it. It's kind of an odd release, but worth looking into. Both this and the previous Record One seven-inch will be included in an extras-packed box-set somewhere down the road.
