(1 Customer Review)
All songs written by Jesse Dupree except "Redneck Punk" (Jeff Worley/Ronnie Honeycutt), "Reach For Me" (Jesse Dupree/John Hayes) and "Brain Drain" (Jeff Worley/Jimmy Stiff).
Forever confined to infamy as the authors of the one and only "Lumberjack" song, Jackyl nonetheless did have more to offer than that one chain saw-wielding song and its sightly video. In fact, their self-titled debut album has a good share of above-average early-'90s hair metal, making it one of the few albums of its era (and, yes, there were many) that stands out in retrospect. First off, Jackyl isn't your typical hair metal band by any measure. They're not from Los Angeles, aren't glammed up, and don't offer the obligatory power ballad; rather, they're Southern rockers by nature and, perhaps uncoincidentally, have more than a passing resemblance to Brian Johnson-era AC/DC. Even so, their singalong choruses are, for the most part, unmistakingly hair metal styled, as is the glossy sheen of their production, so the songs on Jackyl are easily accessible to all. Edgy music this is not. The opening run of songs -- "I Stand Alone," "Dirty Little Mind," "Down on Me," and "When Will It Rain" -- go down especially smoothly, pretty much as smoothly as anything offered by the likes of Warrant, the Bulletboys, Slaughter, Trixter, Love/Hate, ad infinitum. From here, the band tones down the singalong factor a bit and showcases its eccentric side: songs like "Redneck Punk," "She Loves My Cock," and of course, "The Lumberjack" definitely aren't your typical hair metal fare and are essentially what set Jackyl apart from their innumerable contemporaries. In the end, they haven't done anything too remarkable on their debut album. They've simply offered an above-average hair metal album with a couple highlights and a fun touch of novelty. Yet that in itself is somewhat remarkable. As a result, Jackyl is one of those few early-'90s hair metal albums you can return to with a sly grin rather than a disowning cringe. As for what came after afterward, that's a good question that few can answer, as Jackyl disappeared as suddenly as they surfaced, confined forever to "Lumberjack" infamy. ~ Jason Birchmeier

Jackyl album
$15.65 The release of 2009's ENDGAME brings with it a startling realization: if first-generation thrash metal fans had been polled about which of the genre's "Big Four" -- Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, and Megadeth -- would prove to be the most resilient and consistently prolific over the next quarter century, the only sure-fire consensus would probably have been "well, anyone but Megadeth!" And yet, 12 studio albums and 150-plus songs later -- more than any of the other three have managed -- that's exactly what's come to pass. ...

$7.99 Although Nazareth had already broken into the big time in England with their 1973 release RAZAMANAZ, the band had yet to crack the U.S. market. Their stateside break came two years later in the form of 1975's HAIR OF THE DOG. By ...

| | Under The Lake Up For Air CD (1995)
Jackyl album
$11.39 The genre needs all the new creative energies it can muster from ensembles like Under the Lake, which balances its smooth pop ideas with rougher edges bordering on rough fusion. The San Diego band's second release Up For Air has a rhythmic easiness to it that their more aggressive debut lacked, and this sort of subtlety goes a long way towards establishing a sound that's both radio friendly and artistically intriguing. The title summarizes the effect perfectly, as there is finally room ...
| | Croc Shop World CD (2002)
Jackyl CD music
$7.49 Having released nine or ten LPs over 16 years, New Brunswick, NJ's Croc Shop (formerly Crocodile Shop) are one of those electronic industrial bands that has built up a loyal following, yet has remained off the radar for the rest of indie-dom. But the genre is a stubborn one, going back to pioneering efforts by Front 242 (Croc Shop have opened for them) and Nitzer Ebb, and have been pulled along here in the 1980s by a rabid scene down South (especially in Florida). Croc Shop have managed to stand out from the hordes of like-minded computer programmer/musician geeks with their background in Goth and Joy Division, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, '80s Wire (with whom leader Mick Hale toured back then, as a member of the Ex-Lion Tamers, a side-band that performed Wire's first two LPs start to finish!), and even the Chameleons, whose guitarist, Dave Fielding, produced their first LP in 1987. For all their oblique worldviews, impatience with injustice, and unforgiving moods, Hale still finds ways to put out a strong and recognizable tune and a direct lyric, as well as a human vocal amidst all the bleeps and boops and harsh dance beats of the EBM techno style -- a little life in the dark and cold, inhuman robot sound. ~ Jack Rabid
THIS ALBUM IS ON SALE NOW - FOR A LIMITED TIME !!! Breakthru release from Croc Shop. Strong melodies on top ov solid backings. Pure Electro-Synth Pop EBM for the masses! CMJ compaired this release to groups like the Faint & Nitzer Ebb! Outburn gave this a 10/outta/10 in a rave review & Alternative Press commented that it was an ideal cd to play at 100 decibels in an Airport Hangar (Rave? Anyone...) Fans of the groups earlier, darker material need not fear, however: Much like New Order or Depeche Mode before them, Croc Shop maintain a ...
| | Zero Hour Fragile Mind CD (2005)
Jackyl music CDs
$13.89 If a huge meteor were to fatally damage our beloved planet Earth, it might be expected that only two things would survive -- cockroaches and prog metal. Despite a rapid turnover of hard rock styles and subgenres over the years, prog metal always seems to survive. A case in point: the fourth release by San Francisco's Zero Hour, 2005's A Fragile Mind. All the pieces are in place for a prog metal party -- singer Fred Marshall's Geoff Tate-esque vocals, guitarist Jasun Tipton's John Petrucci-esque six-string work, and (of course) thinking man's lyrics and tricky song structures. This is the type of stuff that requires hours upon hours of listening alone in your bedroom to be able to play, and Zero Hour's instrumental chops are never in question here, as evidenced by such selections as "Destiny Is Sorrow" and the title track. And no prog metal album ...
