By this juncture, you either love
Jon Spencer enough to listen to every record, or you've heard plenty and are decidedly uninterested. Still,
Orange mines the same territory as
Extra Width, and that may not be enough. At times, even during
Orange's best tracks (
"Bell Bottoms"), the thin, retro-'70s worshipping sounds phoned in and lacking in real emotional commitment. But, as with a lot of junk
rock, sometimes it can be appreciated for simply being junk, and that's fine. But it's likely that
Spencer's core fans like the idea of the
blues more than the reality. In other words, they don't mind the pose, nor do they mind the facade. In
Jon Spencer's world, image is everything.
