Jay Flash also released an album called “The Loser” last November which employs a variety of different styles and exceeds an hour in length. This album received critical acclaim from a Belgian CD Review site named Rootstime. Rootstime included Jay Flash’s “The Loser” in their 2008 Top Ten List for albums by new artists. They said of him: “Undeniably, [Jay Flash] is a very talented musician, because otherwise you may not like music in this world where the scorched and goose bumps moments succeed each other...Yet there are lively exchanges with some hope hidden amidst all this doomsday thinking and melancholy narrative. Like a person in the chaos of life looking for a new balance with music as a beacon….Jay’s voice sometimes reminds one of Rufus Wainwright, but sensitive in softer realms with a few grim turns...Those who have these dozen songs in their possession can repeatedly play them the whole year through. This winter album is not seasonal.”
Jay Flash also received praise from Milwaukee’s own Shephard Express which said: “...As indicated by the title of this debut album, The Loser overflows with despair, though it''s as articulate as it is achy. Flash''s resigned vocals sound akin to a fresher-faced, Midwestern Lou Reed...Flash''s catchy, downcast songwriting could earn him a following of disaffected acolytes a la Dashboard Confessional.”
Jay Flash is releasing a new album titled "Lonesome
Heroes" in May 2009.
