Reunited noise rockers The Jesus Lizard have issued one other new standalone single, “Westside“. Following “Price Of Dwelling“, this tune is the second to emerge since final September’s arrival of the group’s first album in 26 years, “Rack“.
Guitarist Duane Denison commented, “‘Westside‘ goes together with the earlier single, ‘Price of Dwelling‘, which was subconsciously influenced by Leonard Bernstein’s ‘West Facet Story’ and therefore the title. Actually.”
Vocalist David Yow added, “There’s a half in ‘Westside’ the place the lyrics say, ‘… give him again his arm.’ That was impressed by David Lynch’s ‘Misplaced Freeway,’ when Robert Blake’s character says, ‘Give me again my cellphone.’”
