Down

the jesus lizard's touch and go era albums remastered for 2009 by steve albini and bob weston. the cds are packaged in a deluxe digipack with a 14"x20" double sided colour folder including never before seen photos and extensive liner notes by the band and by journalists who were there when it was all happening. the cd also includes four bonus tracks - 'white hole', 'glamorous', 'deaf as a bat' and 'panic in cicero'. 'down' was the last of the touch and go era jesus lizard albums - classic jesus lizard in many ways, captured when the band were playing at their absolute tightest, filled with odd, unpredictable turns and nuances. 'down' reveals one of the band's greatest strengths: their skill at inventive arrangements.
