BIG PICTURE
BE YOUR OWN PET
Breaking the cycle of grizzled cowboy-hatted troubadours frog: Nashville, Tennessee > bemoaning the loss of their wife/dog/bladder functions comes four hopped-teens who aren’t so much rewriting the rule book as standing on the thingin order to reach the bar. Low on innovation. high on adrenalin, Be Your Own PET (the upper case thing is clever, no?) come over like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ less sell-conscious baby siblings. A glorious second single. ‘Let’s Get Sandy (Big Problems)’ is the punk rock equivalent of a child drawing on your face with a felt pen. Wrong, but tun.
