My Morning Jacket Unveils New Album Track List

March 07, 2008, 1:40 PM ET
Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.
My Morning Jacket throws fans another sonic curveball on its new studio album, "Evil Urges," due June 10 via ATO. The 14-track set sports the most adventurous music of the Kentucky-bred rock act's career, beginning with the title track, a falsetto-driven groove-fest that opens the disc.

MMJ is uncharted territory with songs like "Highly Suspicious," whose robotic funk beats and falsetto singing wouldn't sound out of place on a Rick James or Prince album.

Strident rockers like "Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 1" boast unusual touches, from fluttering synth lines and multi-tracked vocal parts to chopped-up beats and electro effects on the bass and guitars. Appearing near the end of the disc, "Part 2" of the track is an eight-minute-plus mash-up of disco drumming and grandiose production unlike MMJ has ever attempted.

Elsewhere, "Thank You Too" conjures a lost soft rock classic from the '70s, as frontman Jim James tenderly croons, "You really saw my naked heart / you really brought out the naked part."

James and his acoustic guitar are also at the forefront of "Librarian," while "Remnants" and "Aluminum Park" will satisfy fans of MMJ's straight-ahead, double-guitar attack.

The group is expected to unveil new material during shows next week in Houston and Austin, Texas, the latter one of the most anticipated sets at the South by Southwest festival.

Here is the track list for "Evil Urges":

"Evil Urges
"Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 1"
"Highly Suspicious"
"I'm Amazed"
"Thank You Too"
"Sec Walkin'"
"Two Halves"
"Librarian"
"Look At You"
"Aluminum Park"
"Remnants"
"Smokin From Shootin"
"Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 2"
"Good Intentions"

I'm surprised that as early as Okonokos leaked that this is already starting to make its rounds.  I figured they would have kept this one wrapped up a little tighter.

i assumed they leaked it to Billboard themselves so they could comment on some of the songs...

Dylan...as a long time Jacketeer what are your thoughts on the descriptions of these tunes?

Have other songs we are all familiar with been described in a similar way before they released and then turned to sound NOTHING like the preview description (e.g., Wordless Chorus)?

Probably so but it's got to start somewhere right? I just assumed they would have kept it a little more guarded longer, even from critics.  I'm not saying it is now leaked or anything but the more its played for people the better the chances of it being leaked it becomes.

I'm thinking this new sound will be similar to what Beck has been doing over the past few years. I kind of equate Beck to Jim as far as their evolution of their sound.

its like this:

"Evil Urges"
"Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 1"

other tracks

"Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 2"
"Good Intentions"

--i wanna hear "Smokin' from Shootin'"

I love me some Z, but I am glad there are 4 more tracks on this one.  And it's all new baby!  Yes yes yes!  It's as if they created Wonderful to throw us off the scent.

A soft rock classic from the 70's!!!!!! Yay!!  :o :o :o

That totally explains the mustache.

Thanks for posting LB! I can't wait to see the SXSW setlists.

i wonder if "touch me i'm going to scream" is referring to thrusting in your face.

Good Intentions!  I knew it!

BH  "Heavenly Thoughts"
Vespachick  "Enlightened Actions"
Jon T "Devine Intervention"

How did we not think of plain old GOOD INTENTIONS!!!

My mind is spinning with the possibilities of this album.   I wish they would not have dropped this on us so early.  IT'S FUCKING KILLING ME!

Now I'm going to have to drive to Jonathan Cohen's house and pepper him with more questions.

Riny, I need to do a review for the St. Charles Journal, can I get a listen?

Have we seen this pic?

"A falsetto driven groove fest" for crying out loud!

[smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

That article just made me very happy!!  I cannot wait to hear this!;D

I know, is there anything better than that?!?! These songs are going to be SO MUCH FUN TO HEAR LIVE!!!!! :D :D :D

this album has the potential to be one long, reeling version of "Cobra".......not that that's a bad thing, haha, but 14 tracks! We are being fucking spoiled people. HELL YEAH!

OH SHIT RUN!!!

So pumped.  

I can't wait!  It's slowly, slowly coming to the end...of waiting, that is.  

Yes!   ;D

By the description, I think I'm either going to really love the album or be horribly disappointed. I'm feeling worried since I hate hate hate disco and electronica (although it works in trip-hop).

As far as the description of the sound goes it sounds like they made that funk record they always talked about making. I'm looking forward to see what they do it.  I trust that anything Jim puts his name on will be gold (but I am a little nervous).

hmmmmmmm

I'll be watching this one...

Quotei wonder if "touch me i'm going to scream" is referring to thrusting in your face.

where is "thrusting in your face part 89" and "thrusting in your face part 932?"

COME ON PEOPLE

I don't hate disco and electronica, but I hear ya. I'm pretty sure MMJ are smart enough not to go all recent-era QOTSA. I just hope the album's not just 'of the moment', and holds up well over time like all their other albums so far. Love the funk aspect. The description of Highly Suspicious reminds me of the first 3rd of Cobra.....that's a good thing. Thank You Too = Make It With You? We'll see. Can't wait to hear it all.  :o

Quoteits like this:

"Evil Urges"
"Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 1"

other tracks

"Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 2"
"Good Intentions"

You're a quick study. Very observant! Interesting....

I have evil urges to hear this album in its entirety, now-ish.  Seeing them 3-4 times next week is NOT enough!

Is it possible that Wonderful could get released as a stand-alone?

Or that it may be on the new project with M Ward and Bright Eyes?

Either way, the only song ever played before is Look at You, only heard by those lucky folks who made it to the Rud. :D

I can't wait!!!!! :) :) :)

i'm so pumped for the webcast!

Excellent news. I can't wait to hear it.

Found this while trawling about:

PETER ABELARD (1079-1142 AD): In the middle ages, a Christian thinker, Peter Abelard, added a new dimension to the problem. He thought that an act itself is not good or bad but it is the intention of the doer that makes it good or bad.  If a thief commits a theft intending it as something good, it is thereby good.  God considers only the spirit in which an act is done. If one acts in terms of what he deems right but errs and does wrong, the act will remain good.  According to him, goodness and morality are a matter of conscience and intention to do wrong.  An evil done with good intention is not sinful.

Evil urges... good intentions.   Have the chaps gone all medaeval christian on us?

That sounds truly smashing indeed. Finally they're done with the LedZep-rock!

(I'm just saying that to make enemies here, you understand that  :))

Quotei wwish you couldd sse me shakingg :o

That was well done, by the way. 8-)

Quotethis album has the potential to be one long, reeling version of "Cobra".......not that that's a bad thing, haha,

That was my first thought too..and I LOVE LOVE LOVE that track and the whole vibe surrounding it.   To have a whole album like that....!  whoa...

It's going to be a looong Spring.

Nice! Sounds good to me.  8-)

I must have read over this article like 50 times now.  :)  I'm pumped!

...just the direction i wanted them go.  Listening party next thurs.  We'll get half of the songs I bet, if not more at the South by South West show.  

Quotehhhmmmm...not to be a negative nancy, but i'm "highly suspicious" of this new "sound" and "direction"....

I have to conquer.  One of the things I was most impressed with about "Z" was the restraint.  10 songs, great dynamics, no bullshit.  

I am as excited to hear this as ever, but I worry about all my favorite bands falling in to the category of musical masterbation.

!!  the band just NAILS these groove tracks!  and falsetto?  WHOOOOOOOO!

Thanks Riny!!!

I'm not really worried about the length of the tracklisting. At Dawn was all the better for its length and sprawl. And given their history of great soul covers, I'd think that their studio originals are at the same quality.

hey folks-

haven't posted here in a couple years, but i'd like to come out of retirement to say that i am pumped for this new album.  track list looks awesome.  i remember the wait when Z came out and i suspect the payoff here will be just as big.

cheers.

Quotei WANT TO HEAR THIS ALUMINUM PARK RIGHT NOW

Its gotta be about trailer parks right?  Please God let it be about trailer parks...and tornadoes.

Welcome back!

I'm very excited as well.............someone needs to do some serious recording on Monday night so we can hear some of these new tracks.  

Or I can wait until Thursday night...................or, someone just do some recording so I will have a good Tuesday.
