    Disorganized Fun -- new Ronald Jenkees album

    http://www.ronaldjenkees.com/

    Everybody loves jenkees. New album is out, consisting of a bunch of amaaaaaaazing songs. I already can't wait for a 3rd album, lol.

    Here's a few samples of early messing around with some of the songs that are on it:

    Title track:

    Stay Crunchy:

    Hell if those 2 don't convince you, you already fail @ life, but here's one more just for kicks. There's tons more on youtube (I've made a couple huge jenkees posts in youtube thread) if you're interested.

    Throwing Fire

    What the fuck, that's sweet.
    He reminds me of Dan Deacon.

    The albums completely blow it out of the water in terms of sound quality and getting the perfect performance and all that, too. It's amazing.


    Seriously, if he'd put out an album a day at $10, I'd get an extra part time job just to buy one every day.

    I was reading up on his bio on his site; he's now a super rad dude.
    Thanks for the enlightenment, haha.

    I was a little disappointed when I found out that his personality is entirely a front, fortunately his music is still his. Finding out that part of the reason I was originally attracted to his work was a fabrication did cheapen the experience for me slightly.

    I can't find anything particularly convincing except that he doesn't use his real name.

    I'm sad, I thought I was a big Jenkees nerd, and I never really heard about this crap before heh. Only thing I'd heard was when people thought he was like actually retarded.

    All I can find is info saying his name is Benjamin Feltes.

    What are you disappointed about? That he's not mentally retarded or something?

    Then again, people stopped being fans of KISS after they took off their makeup and stopped being fans of Metallica after they cut their hair so who knows. To each their own I guess.

    Regardless, awesome music. I'll probably order a CD from him when he prints some physical ones.

    I remember hearing his stuff back before he released his 1st album, and thinking that he was great. It's nice to see someone enjoying music, doing his thing and not really caring what people think. It reminds me of when I started playing guitar...

    I have done the most thorough and in-depth research into this as humanly possible (I spent 15 minutes on google, obviously), and I can't find anything that implies that he's "fake" other than the stage name.


    Someone got a link to something directly?

    Well it's no Radiohead, but not bad stuff. I'll pirate this album.
