Press Reviews
I could've sworn that there were more Jasons in Army of Jasons than just singer/guitarist Geoff Hayton but as I enter The Linwood, he is the only one on stage playing. It seems that there was a miscommunication tonight causing AOJ's bass player to arrive late. It's unclear as to why Army of Jasons couldn't have switched spots with the headliner, Godboxer, but instead, Hayton handles the situation professionally and performs solo, giving a Cliff's Notes version of what Army of Jasons is about ñ melodic, poppy songs with strong vocals accompanied by a bleakness and bitterness in the lyrics. When the rest of the Jasons arrive, they rush the stage, plug in, and launch head first into what's left of their set. They come off as a Beatles and Byrds tandem, with Hayton and Brett Rosenberg nailing the many harmonies throughout their songs. Everything is well crafted from the song structures to the bass lines to the lyrics. It's an abbreviated set but Army of Jasons delivers under duress.
