More than one of Jacks many nicknames, Zagg is also a shout out to her uncanny ability to select an unanticipated word or musical flourish, her disarming poetic acumen, her ability to zoom in and out at lightning speed and spin a phrase into a mantra, or the opposite of a mantra. Each song on this record is its own unique little world, keeping a listener delightfully off-kilter throughout the entire affair. Opening track FMK operates likes a sonic thesis statement. For a quiet moment, Jackies confessing her recurring mother-in-law dreams and initiating a sudden-death round of Fuck Marry Kill. Then on a dime she somersaults into rocket-pop posture, ready to cut loose and head to the movies with her best boogie-boy: Lets go to the movies and dance a little&you can share my Twizzler&Lets go to the movies, you can dance at the movies!!! The charging, industrial pop of Get Out is augmented with punching strings that are both lovely and foreboding. In the lithe, Rickie Lee Jones-nodding Yesterdays Baby, a giant foot-shaped cloud looms in the mouth-shaped sky and Jackie gets microscopic Why dont you just let it burn out/Toss that glass of wine out/Stamp that Camel Light out/Shut your mouth up shut up your mouth. After a few more dances, deep diaphragmatic breaths, and Blood on the Tracks winking ballads, knock-out marathon track Keep Runner gives it straight to some Wile E. Coyote tomfool whos out getting his butt blown up again. The energy of the record, I think, comes from finding out Patti Smith didnt make Horses until she was 29. Extremely influential Wiki experience. Oh, and Adam Green, my all-time favorite songwriter and artist, painted me looking like a doctrinal seer peering into a cartoon mirror for the cover.
