JACK OFF JILL ON ITUNES!!!!!



The now defunct Jack Off Jill hit the South Florida scene in 1992 and was hailed by critics as a "childrens puppet show meets the Exorcist" The band lasted eight years, with only Moulder and Fodera remaining through all its lineups.
The Original [all-girl] line-up consisted of Jessicka : Vocals / Lyrics , Agent [robin] Moulder : bass , Michelle In-Hell [guitar] and Tenni Ah-Cha-Cha [drums]. Jack Off Jill played with a relentless fuck-all attitude and sound that could rarely be duplicated by its predecessors. Releasing Children 5 and Up, Cannibal Songbook and Cockroach Waltz before a line-up change bringing Ho-Ho Spade and Lauracet Simpson into the roles of guitarist and drummer, Jack Off Jill released their first full-length Sexless Demons and Scars on risk records in 1997. Touring with such acts as Lords of Acid , Switchblade Symphony and fellow Florida band Marilyn Manson, Jack Off Jills live show was one to be seen. They commanded the stage ruling it as their own private playpen complete with dolls -candy - blood - and a plethora of toys for singer Jessicka to fashion into weapons in order to injure herself or her unsuspecting band mates. Jack off Jill took the stage taunting you to play their game and play it on their turf.
With yet another line-up change in 1998, placing SMP Scott Mitchell Putesky aka Daisy Berkowitz of Marilyn Manson fame in the guitar position and Claudia Rossi on drums, JOJ released a remix ep called Covetous Creature in November. Now Transplanted to Los Angeles, the band's final line- up change brought ex-Plexi drummer Norm Block on drums and original guitarist Michelle In-Hell along with Clint Walsh and Helen Storer all on guitar. This line-up helped create what would be JOJ's last studio album the melancholy masterpiece Clear Hearts Grey Flowers, released in 2000. Sadly at this time, poor publicity, record label turmoil and a decaying relationship between Jessicka and Robin, played a part in the demise of JOJ. Jack Off Jill's last show was played at the Troubadour in Los Angeles in April of 2000. Long Time friend and producer ex Nine Inch Nailer
Chris Vrenna sat in on drums for Jack Off Jill's last performance
