On The Volunteers-Jonah Matranga seamlessly integrates visceral rock with the intimate, sharp lyricism that has made him one of the underground's most beloved songwriters. A stunning album of shimmering, eccentric pop rock made spontaneously in many different places, the performances are immediate and diverse, with Jonah's voice more direct and dynamic than it has ever been. This CD is enhanced with demo versions of album tracks and additional liner notes written by Jonah.
