That Noise
Los Angeles, CaliforniaJay & Jawnee birthed That Noise in the Byzantine Latino Quarter deep in the heart of Los Angeles in 2002 Jay started started composing orginal songs. This collection of songs soon came to be known as Unconsicous Ruckus. Kanpai Records soon picked up the album and released it Spring 2005. It was at this point Jay hooked up with Jawnee Burkes. The duo played consistantly throughout Southern California, CMJ, and SXSW as well as tour the US. Early demos of the new album caught the ear of producer Sylvia Massey (Tool, System Of A Down, Johnny Cash). Soon the band was wrapping up tracking at Sylvias Weed California Studio and filming the video for the first single Willow Tree. The album encompa***s many topics both past and present such as in the song 'Cinchweed' which talks about the murder of Jay's first girlfriend at the young at of 13 years old in Las Cruces NM. To this day this crime is still unsolved. Also the state of media and pop culture and its constant bombardment of telling us that the way we are is not enough, consume more and feel better. Everyone on this earth has a feeling of urgency as to the 'State of Affairs' of our planet and our future and there are 'No Words' to describe this collective consciousness that transcends all race and creed. This album 'The Way We Are' addresses these primal emotions through song. That Noise is just 'The Way We Are'.
