Jay-Jay Johanson: Rush

Previously on his last album, "Antenna" Jay-Jay went full-on electropop but with "Rush" he's tempered it to have a more mature and nocturnal feel. This is not say that this album is a snooze-fest. The next track "The Last of the Boys to Know" is possibly one of his best. There is something very palpable about the words to me. A song of growing up and the awful truths which are revealed as we age. The emotion seeps out of one's speakers, becoming a commanding presence in the room.
