Who here loves John Carpenter’s movies as well as the True Mother darlings, Jaded Lover? If you answered “Yes!” then you’re going to love this duo of Carpenter covers from these producers.
“The Thing Expands” is based on Carpenter’s “The Thing” and adds an ominous kick drum while swapping out Ennio Morricone’s string arrangements for analogue synth squelch that’s as cosmic as it is foreboding. “Assault On Precinct 13 (Jaded Lover’s Ballad Of Little Kathy Version)” gives a similar treatment to the original theme from “Assault On Precinct 13” and links the past with the present in a fine musical pairing. -Z.W.

Watching Porno (feat. SaraJeanne)

Jaded Lover return with a pop-off across the sheets paean to pornography. A sly, slick sing-a-long, "Watching Porno (feat. SaraJeanne)" transmits a generous jerk of electro-static pop. The tight, laughing vocal from SaraJeanne lips the saucy sippy cup with glee.

At The Dunes

Samples of lonely maritime gales usher in "At The Dunes," which pits detuned pads against bass and guitar with a soft, seaside lilt. "Call Of The City" slightly picks up the pace and unfurls into an infectious synth-pop instrumental. "Lawn Mowers At Night," draws heavily on Potions' sombre guitar tones…

Ex-Post Dishes

Jaded Lover returns with Ex-Post Dishes, a single that was vaguely inspired by Pulp’s infamous “Dishes.” Beyond the title though, the similarities to Mr. Cocker’s domestic musings end as New Wave guitar, synth, and drums mesh with the vocals to create the already hook-laden label’s catchiest tune yet.
