"We move in circles, it's the nature of things."
-Gone to Texas
Jessica's Crime return in 2006 with their third full length album, the epochal 'Gone to Texas.' A stark and violent journey through the dreamlike landscape of a mythical West, 'Gone to Texas' evokes the surrealistic narrative of King's 'Gunslinger' and the psychological complexity of Conrad's 'Heart of Darkness.' Musically, Jessica's Crime's fractured country aesthetic spills headlong into relentless, mechanized percussion, overlaid with a complex lattice of gonzoid guitar riffing and mercurial, whiskey tenor vocals. The overall effect is weirdly familiar yet decidedly without parallel, providing equal measures of visceral and intellectual satisfaction, rarely encountered in popular music.
