jennylee – right on!

If you check the liner notes to right on!, you’ll find a Lindberg on bass and a Mozgawa on the drums… but this is no Warpaint record. Jenny Lee Lindberg’s first solo record – as the lowercased jennylee – has been a long time in the making, and it requires an equally dedicated approach to letting it soak in.  

On first impressions, right on! is a smoky, shadowed cathedral to goth rock – moody and sculptural, quasi-romantic offerings presented in monochrome. But, as with most people once you get to know them, you’ll learn a whole lot more once you’ve moved past the formalities of introduction. Colours emerge. Single Never's grunge credentials brush up against the almost trip-hop of He Fresh, and the scrawled, vicious landscape of White Devil. Confident and supremely creepy, Lindberg's proven skill for creating space and manipulating atmosphere means that right on! changes shape so rapidly, there'll be no way of knowing quite how to feel about it any time soon.
