EP256:  X - More Fun in the New World - Beginning with their debut “Los Angeles” in 1979, X put out four consecutive nearly perfect records culminating with “More Fun in the New World" in 1983.  It would be their last album produced by Ray Manzarek and the bands sound would more overtly incorporate elements of Roots Rock and Americana whole John Doe and Exene Cervenka’s lyrics would begin leaning into current events and political and social happenings in addition to the amazingly detailed, heart wrenching observations from their personal lives.  Maybe more than any previous release, More Fun in the New World is the sound of X starting down adulthood.      RIP Mojo Nixon   Recommended Listening   EP3:  X "Wild Gift" https://huntsmanhill.com/2016/11/23/64/   EP86:  X "Los Angeles"  https://huntsmanhill.com/2019/01/22/ep86-x-los-angeles/   Ep121:  X “Alphabetland” https://huntsmanhill.com/2020/05/03/ep121-x-alphabetland-soundtrack-to-the-apocalypse-vol-7/   EP180:  X "Under The Big Black Sun" https://huntsmanhi
