Noam Jacobs Portland, Oregon
Noam Jacobs is a cool kid from Evanston, IL who recently (last week?) popped into existence and howled out some sour notes from the soul. He loves Radiohead, Tom Waits, James Baldwin, and photosynthesizing.
Noam Jacobs recommends:
Gonzo was recorded entirely on garageband, but ya wouldn't know it. this album is truly incredible, combining brit pop with trip hop with experimental alt. rock. sounds like an alien's diary.

I listened to Wounded City in the winter and was totally weirded out. In total awe. These sounds are so normal and strange. It's got these soothing and hypnotic Australian desert vibes, it haunts me.
