Jim James : Know Til Now

jim.jpg

Know Til Now is the first single from Regions Of Light And Sound Of God, the solo debut from Jim James of My Morning Jacket. The Gayngs-esque tune has a strange paint-by-numbers quality, with pulsing, horn-like samples, ethereal backing vocals and a funky beat plonked hap-hazardly on the canvas, separate musical parts that stand awkwardly beside each other but don’t quite fuse. It’s not bad, mind you – the song has a curious, cold and surreal flavour that draws you in.
