Luscious Jackson emerged in 1991 as the coolest girls strutting the East Village. Playing a m\u00e9lange of hip-hop rhythms, brooding bass, and mysterious harmonies, the group \u2014 founding members Jill Cunniff, Gabby Glaser, and Kate Schellenbach \u2014 hit hard among the then-burgeoning alt-punk-hip-hop scene in New York, propped up by their lifelong friends the Beastie Boys. By the time 1997 rolled around, Luscious Jackson had hit the Billboard charts („Naked Eye“), and solidified themselves as one of the era’s most unique bands. But when their final album, Electric Honey, failed to pop off \u2014 and Cunniff wanted to have children \u2014 they went on hiatus in 2000.
\nBut after 12 years, the trio is working on a new album, beginning with the breakbeat-laden pop song „Are You Ready?“ Now liberated by the Internet, the group is funding their new work entirely through their fans via Pledge Drive, and gearing up for a new tour schedule (working around their families, of course). „Our fans are basically supporting our new record,“ says Glaser. „It’s amazing.“ (Spin magazine)<\/p><\/blockquote>\nEs gibt durchaus schlechtere Nachrichten als diese. Luscious Jackson sind also zur\u00fcck, sehr sch\u00f6n!
\nIhr Album „Fever in, fever out“ hatte ich erst vor einigen Jahren in einem Second-Hand Plattenladen wiederentdeckt und sofort gekauft. Bisher hatte ich das Album, das seinerzeit auf dem Beastie Boys Label erschien, nur auf Kassette. Ich mag es immer noch, steht hier<\/a>. Was die neuen Sachen angeht, nun, da mag sich jeder selbst ein Bild machen. \u00dcber PledgeMusic kann man sich den neuen Song Are you ready?<\/a> downloaden.<\/p>\n
