NY DAILY NEWS article on the new album!

When John Brown's Body formed upstate in Ithaca 10 years ago, the group's name wasn't their only backward-looking trait.

Inspired by classic Jamaican reggae acts, the band played an immaculate re-creation of their vintage rock-steady sound.

JBB's precision and musical authenticity made it a hit on the college circuit, but West Indian fans never really accepted the sound as "real" reggae.

Now the band itself - which plays tonight at Southpaw - has rejected the notion of playing anything like a pure strain of reggae. (more)

NEWS RELEASE
JBB FINISHES MIX OF ALBUM

Wednesday, December 15, 2004 —In September, Easy Star announced the signing of John Brown’s Body to the label. Three months later, as 2004 begins to come to a close, we’re happy to bring an update.

JBB has tracked the entire album, PRESSURE POINTS, over the last three months. The work was done primarily at Pyramid Studio in Ithaca, New York, where the band recorded THIS DAY. Once again, Alex Perialis (Genuwine, Missy Elliot, Anthrax) has been on board as co-producer and engineer, helping to create the best sounding JBB album yet. The production has featured a few guest appearances by past John Brown’s Body family members, such as Lee Hamilton and Josh Driscoll, plus a vocal cameo by the legendary Meditations, one of Jamaica’s best loved vocal groups.
