专辑介绍:
To say that every new Jet Set Satellite album comes with a certain amount of struggle would be the understatement of the century. Though the bands early success with their debut album, Blueprint, was almost legendary in the Canadian music industry, bad omens, family deaths, car crashes, failed relationships, line-up changes, and other catastrophic turns of event have perpetually plagued the band ever since. Its like the rock gods have since returned for their pound of flesh.
"If this band didnt have bad luck, it wouldnt have any luck at all," quips frontman, Trevor Tuminski. "The sheer tenacity weve had to exhibit to keep this train rolling should be proof of just how haunted we are by the echoes in our head. Some people do this for success or girls or money. Were chasing an entirely different animal".
According to Tuminski, their ominously titled, third album, End of an Era, is the bands sound fully-realized. Having long struggled with the studio experience and working with outside producers, the band opted to finally take the reins themselves, with multi-instrumentalist Dave "Bulldog" Swiecicki quarterbacking the sessions that took place at two home studios the band assembled.
The result is an overwhelming, emotional, powerful record. Not one of overwrought balladry or weepy exposition, but of strength, determination and grit – their influences out on their sleeve (Black Sabbath, the Cult, Faith No More, the Police, Danzig, Queens of the Stone Age, old Metallica) but filtered through a collective that is entirely its own. Cheering each other on to raise the bar and finding comfort in their environment were the keys to capturing the bands live presence, says Tuminski.
"Theres a poise in these performances and recordings that I think eluded us on the first two releases," he explains. "We made sure we had the songs that excited us and that felt like they belonged together, and then gave each other the room to really push the envelope on our instruments. Mikes (Keller, lead guitar) growth as a writer and player on End of an Era is going to blow peoples minds. Having Jay (Rink, bass) join the band right after Vegas came out was a huge shot in the arm on every level too, and you can finally hear the effect of that here," he says. "And Richs (Reid, drums) style has just thrived upon the extra space weve left for those big, meaty, rock moments we typically may have left on the cutting room floor".
Rock moments like the crushing swagger of lead single "Ladykiller", the muscular heaviness of opener "The Beast", the anthemic gallop of "Resurrexit", the dance floor aphrodisiac of "Black.Heart.Burn", and the resonance of the bands first recorded cover, Black Sabbaths "Children of the Grave".
"We had never really planned to include a cover on any of our albums but with Children of the Grave, something just clicked," says Tuminski. "Ozzy Osbourne really isnt credited for the brilliant lyricist he is. In our troubled times, the words to that song just seemed the perfect fit for the themes at work on the record, not to mention the doomsday feel of the music".
In the past year, the band have shared stages with Buckcherry, Finger Eleven, Three Days Grace, Theory of a Deadman, State of Shock and Thornley, and continue their run of TV and film synchronizations that includes hit shows such as E.R., Dead Like Me, and Tru Calling, and films American Outlaws, Soul Survivors, Grizzly Rage and The Long Road.
"We may have been blessed early on in our musical odyssey but everything weve achieved since then has been from our own hard work and diligence, and the enthusiasm of our fans," Tuminski says. "Every day there has been a reason to quit but we just keep pushing forward because it is simply in us to do so and that will never go away."
"If none of the wounds weve endured to this point have killed us, nothing will".
