I'm also listening to the album on NME. Kim Gordon, Sonic Youth anyone? Sounds like pretty raw fun though.

IndiElectronica · 04-03-2006, 04:46 AM

Like their album a lot, not sure i'll be listening to it in 6 months time but for now its great. 'Love Your Shotgun' and 'Thresher's Flail' are my favourites.

MySpace.com - be your own PET - NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE - Jungle / Punk / Rock - www.myspace.com/beyourownpetmusic

Honestly, this band is nothing groundbreaking, just four kids out of Nashville making loud beachy rock. I can say this, they are tons of fun. Jemina Pearl, lead singer, is like Karen O and Angelica Pickel's of Rugrats thrown in a blender. They put on a great show. Jemina is full of energy, making you feel like something dangerous might happen during one of their sets... unless she isnt feeling the crowd, which usually consists of pretentious indie scenesters who all act like they've come to see some other band... and she'll let everyone know how she feels about it. ("THIS IS THE WORST ****ING SHOW WE HAVE EVER DONE! YOU PEOPLE SUCK *******!"... not a direct quote, but you catch the drift.) Yeah she's kind of a bitch, and dont be suprised if you catch her purging into towels and throwing them at people in the audience. They have alot of work to do if they want to gain any "street cred" amongst people, but I still enjoy them. I mean, theyre young, theyre not ready to grow up and that shows in their music.

They have a new album coming out called "Get Awkward", which doesnt even begin to compare to thier self-titled debut, although it's a good listen. It's more polished compared to the slapdash noise on their first record. Anyways, I recommend these tracks to start out with...

Damn Damn Leash
Fire Department
Bunk Trunk Skunk
Wildcat!
Adventure
Bog
Stairway to Heaven (NOT a zep cover)
We Will Vacation, You Can Be My Parasol
Fill My Pill
Thresher's Flail

Get Awkward is the best album of 2008 thus far, "Heart Throb" being the best song of 2008

I'm not a big fan but they've got some fun stuff.
