Long held up as exemplary by indie-uber-alles ethicist Steve Albini, Chicago's Jesus Lizard has signed a pact with the devil himself, Irving Azoff, and released a one-shot live album called Show as part of the Collision Arts/Giant Records series commemorating the 20th anniversary of CBGB. The 15 tracks come close to capturing the bone-crushing intensity of the noise rockers' live set, but there's no substitute for catching singer David Yow in person in all his sweating, spitting, and screaming glory. The only thing more entertaining would be seeing Albini try to explain how the band hasn't sold out. --Jim DeRogatis
