Jon Jones And The Beatniks Movement





Jul 29 2008 3:06 PM

OUR DEBUT EP 'ENGINE POWER' IS NOW ON SALE!



''They simply blow you away with thunderous effect''

AUDIO SCRIBBLER


''Jon Jones and the Beatniks Movement should come with a health warning at the least, no one is held responsible if, whilst listening to their songs, you suffer bouts of insanity, nightmares or schizophrenic experiences. To be honest, it's all part of the Beatniks experience''

AMPEDREVIEWS. NET

JJ&TBM though aren't a band that is looking back in time, they are visionaries that are pushing forward with every week, every gig they play, every new track they demo and every instrument they add to their collection, they certainly respect the past but they are very much the future."

THE BEAT SURRENDER


"Put it on to clear a room of all the losers with no time for real rock n' roll."

THE SKINNY


"Engine Power' by Jon Jones & The Beatniks Movement is a piece of punk escapism, a nightmare on your street, a bad trip on a flight home, a psycho-babble orgy - whatever you fear most, this is it - enjoy, enjoy, enjoy - do it now!! Absolutely electrifying!"
