Punk Planet is awesome, and not just because they review like a billion CD's each issue - the articles and columns are pretty cool too. For more info click on the link, which will take you to their website - they don't list CD reviews on the site, so that's why we reprint the "Bed" review here. This is from the July/August '03 issue, the cover of which featured the words "An Army Of None: All Alone At The Ass End Of The War On Terror - A Soldier's Tale" accompanied by a close-up drawing of a frightened soldier's face. The magazine also features an OK interview with the illusive Will Oldham and an awesome column entitled "Emo: Where The Girls Aren't", which should be suggested reading for all the males out there who believe there's some sort of cathartic/artistic merit to building a song catalogue whose subject matter is wholly based on all the girls who've wronged you. Ha ha, pretty ironic which of Jerry's albums got reviewed in this issue. Anyways, the review had a little ear next to it, which in Punk Planet review lingo usualy means the reviewer thought the CD was super rad:

"Almost Lo-Fi, but not quite, Jerry Fels is more a curious mix between Chris Knox and Atom, minus the Package. I should point out that Jerry plays every instrument, does all the lead and backing vocals and produces each song. That's always a refreshing touch in these days of computerized vocals and lip-sync prowess. The tongue-in-cheek tracks are brilliant, but when they take a turn for the serious, the shtick gets old quick. It's almost as if Jerry has two personalities: the witty, sarcastic satirist and the heavily depressed, suicidal spurned lover. More of the fast, funny and quirky and less of the 'lonely boy', and the next record will be a complete hit." (Bart Niedzialkowski)
