ROSETTA WEST hails from the Mid-West, and plays true raw psychedelic blues; the sound is basic, crude and savage, almost gothic in its grandeur, and echoes the likes of JAMES BLOOD ULMER, and CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, alternating grungy blues tunes and acoustic numbers to create a landscape of voodoo nightmares, whiskey-fueled raves, and fever-stricken deathbed laments.
Starting in 1996, the band has already released a series of self-produced recordings praised by critics, DJs and musicians around the world, including the likes of THURSTON MOORE, PHIL MILSTEIN and BYRON COLEY. After a two year break, ROSETTA WEST is back, always under the guidance of guitarist/singer JOSEPH DEMAGORE, with JAY DANIELS on bass, MIKE WEAVER on drums ... and the infamous NATHAN Q. SCRATCH. Alive records is proud to bring you 'X Descendant', a unique album of acoustic and electric down and dirty blues-swamp-rock.
"X Descendant" is a 9-song witch's brew of distilled booze, swamp sweat, Mississippi mud, bayou Blues, and barroom Psychedelia. I'll just call it "blooze", and let Rosetta West speak for themselves in all of their gritty, voodoo-laced splendor. Influences seem to range from John Lee Hooker and Creedence Clearwater Revival to early ZZ Top and even The Black Keys. The sound is stark, rural, and abundantly mannish, yet with a purgatorial, somewhat melancholy feel to it. X Descendant should be played as midnight fades into the shadows and the full moon rises low. Bring your own jug, and beware the hound dogs howlin' in the distance.

sehr cooles Retro-Projekt aus '96
Naja, das verschwimmt hier ja eh ein bisschen mit dem Ambient-Fred, in dem auch viel Folkiges gepostet wird. Macht mMn aber auch nix, da die Genrelandschaft so oder so nicht mehr überschaubar ist. Hauptsache gute Musik und so.
daher hier der Vimeo-Link 
Ich mag die Jenny so sehr
