iN HIS OWN WORDS an awful man Jinx stands at the outer edge of the periphery of the Hibernian music machine picking the dirt beneath the fingernails of fading septic tiger landscape while the larvae practise their new voices in their bedrooms in front of mirror contemplating visualisation for the mid atlantic voiced shiny ''discover me '' dream that will enable them to become new chrysalis transformation and escayyypp . Jinx once lay horizontally in early am before school unconsciously soaking up the neo nuclear 4 minute warning sirens of the nearby factory 8 am work shift cattle round up,and the spooky echoes of metallic brewery noise and far off railway line vibrato ghosts.Now he pulls out these cranial archives into new shapes and TRAUMA THEMES of word and sound along with the rage built up from border town omnipresent soccer fascism environment and mundane assembly line worlds where hard chaw lads and doomed faced women walked along the conveyor belt towards cement block Invasion of Bodysnatchers/Stepford Wives package existence.JINX LENNON FREE STATE NOVA is an Irish wordsmith here to primarily uplift people and squash the unseen energy vampires in all myriad forms.Making room to weave some modicum of hope and dignity Jinx is the dying light in the red leech face of disgraced solicitor contrite and pleading now no longer poster boy for the gimme gimmes,but he brings the message that one must try their best to FORGIVE THE C**TS and move upwards.These sounds are not just for those tired of listening to the empty heads, but also for the helicopter Icarus people who crash land back to d earth in these IDIOT TIMES.
NEW ALBUM ''TRAUMA THEMES IDIOT TIMES'' RELEASED ON MARCH 20TH (FEATURING MISS PAULA FLYNN)

I've thrown a wee video together around a version of "My Way" recorded this summer live in Casablanca, wi' two Bulgarian classical girls. The footage is from Montreal 2003 @ the "Tam Tam" on Mont Royale (all the shiny, happy, hippy-dippy folk).
Thanks guys, we're well chuffed, it was a bit of a surprise but well, the hearts and capillaries of the people will always crave a fag! :o) Good gig on Saturday night, really enjoyed the documentary. Sure we'll do your next music video for you, Connor says he'll be Nobby Stiles x
Jinxy -did you hear my good news - gmail won't work for me and i have no credit. My video for 'Holiday In Sweden' was nominated for IMTV Irish Music Video Awards Best Solo Female category along with Lisa Hannigan, julie Feeney, Wallis Bird and Gemma Hayes. I can't believe I was selected among all them famous Irish female artists. I am very delighted. Talk Soon. I can't sleep tonight...
good to meet you (though very brief, due to the hungry tribe in the back of the car) last Friday. Looking forward to seeing yourself and Paula Flynn tomorrow night ('tis also the first time I get to see Wasp vs Humans in action too, strangely)
Its been a while and we thought it was about time we updated you on what we've been up to. Our debut EP Little World is now available at our gigs and will soon be available from our myspace and facebook pages, you will also be able to download it from itunes, but we don't have a release date for this as yet.
To celebrate the fact that we have now reached 25,000 plays on myspace, we are giving you a free MP3 of Rockabye Baby. All you have to do is send your email address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you.
We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our myspace and facebook pages.
