The Six String Jets--"Savage Beat" + 3
Wrecked Em 2005
The Six String Jets come out rockets blazing on this new four song 7". Treading similar sonic ground to their pals the Angel Sluts, these guys definitely try their damnedest to ensure your head gets completely seperated from your shoulders as you're having a good time rocking out. Rest assured, this platter does succeed on that count.
While Angel Sluts comparisons are inevitable, the Six String Jets have even more in common with bands like the Oblivians and Mullens. Cuts like "Savage Beat" and "Getaway" have an unforgiving brutality to them without ever losing focus on fun. This stuff is going to kill you and make you grin.
Lyrically, it's very clear the Six String Jets have chicks on the brain. This fact likely accounts for a great deal of the urgency that holds these songs up. It also helps raise the fun and funny quotients as evidenced on "Mr. Airplane Man." With lines like "Mr. Airplane Man/how'd you get so pretty/Mr. Airplane Man/where'd you get those titties," you'd have to be one uptight piece of misery not to chuckle.
Bottom line: this is well-written, well-executed punk rock n' roll that is very worth your time. The Six String Jets bring it so fierce here, this disc is sure to make the highest end of audiophile speakers sound blown out. That, in itself, should bring a smile to your face. As killer onstage as on wax, go raise a beer for these guys if they're ever in your area. On both counts, if you weren't hip before, it's time to join the party.
