Jonestown - what is it?

The Brian Jonestown Massacre (frequently abbreviated as "BJM" or "The BJM") are a neo-psychedelic rock band, founded in San Francisco, California, in the early 1990s, led by Anton Newcombe.

The BJM's music can mostly be described as "neo-psychedelic", since it is generally perceived to be "mind-expanding" music, and because it can be seen as being a "continuation" of music from the 1960s.

The name is an homage to Brian Jones, original lead guitarist for the Rolling Stones.

The Brian Jonestown Massacre is one of the best bands of my generation. Too bad they've never had much commercial success.

Jonestown

n. phenomenon that occurs in the wake of a house party, when large numbers of party-goers may pass out where ever they can find room. This scene brings to mind the news footage of the 1978 Jonestown mass suicide in Guyana in which 909 followers of Jim Jones were coerced into drinking cyanide laced beverages (see also kool-aid party). The chilling images captured after the cult suicide depicted piles of oddly serene bodies scattered throughout a compound, like the drunken, passed-out party-goers.

"Dude your rager was phenomenal, looked like Jonestown in your parent's living room this morning."
