July 11 show reviewed in the Houston Press

The Press’s Nightfly column happened to be at the Mink on July 11 and wrote up a short review of our show (scroll to the bottom of the page to see it):

On a recent evening at the Backroom, Woozyhelmet and Side Arms were in fine form, but the Jonx owned the night. All the groups were loud, but the Houston/Austin punk trio seemed to be coming at you from every direction. It was much more visceral than listening to the band’s MySpace page, but have a go anyway at www.myspace.com/thejonx. The highlight was the Sonic Youth-like closer “Scent of Earth,” which lasted for what seemed like two hours. 

Thanks very much to Shea Serrano and the Press for the kind words.
