Here’s what the top music blog had to say:
Jackson Scott’s Soundcloud page has three songs and not much more. We know he’s from Asheville, North Carolina; there’s also a link to his Tumblr, which hosts a faded Polaroid and absolutely nothing else. Considering the slackened style of music he leans toward, it’s likely this is more a result of self-effacement, rather than a masterplan to generate intrigue, since forensics analysis on Scott’s “That Awful Sound” reveals DNA from the entire bloodline of home-recorded, scrappy indie-pop.
The mazelike structure and wiggly guitar leads of Built to Spill, Elephant 6‘s sped-up vocals and hard-strummed acoustics, Bradford Cox‘s reverence for four-track recording and countless other minor figures pop up during this instantly ingratiating and puzzling song. It’s a style that’s undoubtedly tied to the 1990s and familiar with older heads, but it sounds perfect on him. “That Awful Sound” is proof that the best way to pay tribute is to add to its legacy.
22,000 listens and counting for Scott. Listen here (click over to Pitchfork if the player won’t work). It’s good:

Track. And I do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright.
Could it be simply me or does it appear like some of these comments come across like they are coming from brain dead visitors?
