   About deconstructing jim

Yeah. We were blinded by the light.

Deconstructing Jim is Brennen Chouinard (drums), Jeff Julian (voc/guitar), and Matt Yeager (voc/bass) all of whom hail from southwestern Chicagoland. The three-piece band tours as often as their day jobs allow them—more than 150 shows in the past four years. That’s where they’ve honed their live shows, which are punctuated by a thunderous rhythm section, dual lead vocal harmonies, and intricately written songs.

The band has many influences—Ron Sexsmith, The Beatles, Houston, Jawbox, Queens of the Stone Age, and Muse—just to name a few. But what drives Deconstructing Jim is their love of cold beer, new towns, and dirty rock venues.

Deconstructing Jim has begun work on the follow-up to 2007's “A Future Told by Swords” EP. The band will once again work with Jeff Halland (ex-Houston) in his new St. Paul, MN, studio. The project, which is tentatively titled "Self Indulgent Bastards," is slated to be released in May 2009 as a 10-song album.

Sandwiched in between all the desert hell and chaos comes Back From Ashes. This is another band you're probably hearing a lot about all over the Ning.com networks and Myspace. Their support team is... I will attest, second to hardly anyone. These guys are hardworking to the bone both on stage and off. Back From Ashes represents Arizona's version of main stream metal with a twist. They are innovative masters of the harmony and melody that hooks every girl's attention and brings on the heavy in a way that leaves all the guys going home not feeling like pussies for taking their woman to see "yet another chick rock band!" You want talent they have it and they can hang with screaming rock bands to the most brutal metal maniacs.
