Jolly Jumpers

Fantom Zone

Two years have passed by since Jolly Jumpers from Tyrnava in northern Finland have released their last album "Mobile Babylon" on TUG Records. The first of their numerous releases that was recorded with new bandmember Arimatti Jutila of Flaming Sideburns-fame. But that was way not the only thing that made "Mobile Babylon" stand out from their previous works. It was also their turn towards straighter retrorock without losing the magical momentum and their undeniable Americana influences that still makes them an exception among all Finnish garage-rock outfits. This record makes it's way somewhere between the longing moments of Calexico, the faith-driven 16 Horsepower/Wovenhand material and a moody, feverish swamp-blues feel in general. It's just absolutely unbelievable that they make this kind of stuff up in the north only some few km from the arctic circle.
