The title of Jim White's debut album, Wrong-Eyed Jesus! refers not to any of the 11 original songs but to the short story that takes up 14 of the CD booklet's 18 pages. It's actually a pretty good story, full of the religious imagery and Southern weirdness that make White sort of a beatnik Flannery O'Connor, and the outsider folk art that accompanies it seems appropriate. Being a good writer and a bohemian artist is not the same thing as being a musician, however, and the songs' out-of-tune mumbling, melodic minimalism, ramshackle arrangements, and gratuitous symbolism make White sound like Leonard Cohen at his worst.

Jim White's debut album is a cinematic collection of Appalachia-inspired country-folk rendered with a gothic sensibility and junkyard atmospherics (the inclusion of Tom Waits collaborator Ralph Carney on several tracks lends the record a distinctly Waits-ish veneer). Drawing on his bizarre life experiences and troubled Pentecostal upbringing, White's narratives are surreal and crazed, shot through with disturbing spiritual imagery and backwoods dementia; a strangely beautiful record, Wrong-Eyed Jesus! is a fine introduction to a uniquely twisted talent.
