FLACCID MOJO - Loose Jacks

Aaron Warren and Bjorn Copeland have been playing music together since 1999: nine years as Flaccid Mojo and twenty-six years as Black Dice. This partnership has been a ramble, a supply run through the wasted landscape of contemporary music. Stacking up the dumb, the muffled, and the used-up, the pair consistently create unbalanced, breathtaking mutant constructions. The latest example is Loose Jacks, Flaccid Mojo's second full-length. Made from free phone apps, fractured youtube videos, and cracked-screen electronics—the scorched and crumpled sediment of the streaming-industrial complex—Loose Jacks is the wide, hysterical grin of finding treasure in the end days.Flaccid Mojo’s songs are built for live performance, with a modular arsenal of rhythms, stabs, and payoffs all at the ready. It’s their way of centering the physical; of ensuring the bodily dictates of each song’s composition reassert these commands on everyone in the audience. The satisfaction of a loop that runs until it’s in your blood, the bassline sculpted into a shove, the snare hit as sharp as a stranger’s elbow. You can feel like a ghost passing through some other band’s record, but Loose Jacks is all brick wall, weighted blanket, strong hands launching you atop a pile of bodies. It’s a liberatory, unspiritual experience. A carnal one.As with their debut LP, Flaccid Mojo (released 2022 by Castle Face), Loose Jacks was recorded by Chris Coady, whose been at Black Dice shows since the nineties. It’s good to work with people who get it, who aren’t going to argue about key or “the grid.”Similarly, Loose Jacks was mastered by Sarah Register, whose band Talk Normal shared a wall with the Black Dice practice space. Loose Jacks hits on February 27, 2026. For fans of Chrome, Men’s Recovery Project, and the Chemical Brothers.
