Description
SparkleJet started life---as a roots-rock recording project---in the winter of 1996. In the summer of 1997, we offered the world our first self-released album. Simply entitled, "SOAP", the CD was received well by critics and was compared to artists like; Tom Petty, Paul Westerberg and the Replacements. Then, a great thing happened: SparkleJet grew-up and got its act together. We wrote some songs, played a lot of shows, re-wrote some songs and went into the studio. What came outta that was 1998's "This Years Model"; a 13-song offering that garnered rave reviews from publications like; The Fresno Bee, San Francisco Guardian, BAM, Sacramento's Alive & Kickin', Yeah Yeah Yeah, and various on-line Web site reviews. We got on some compilations, including "Man You Gotta Move", released on Heyday Records. We did a couple of Northwest tours, drank a lot of beer and even sold some CDs in the process. "This Years Model" got us featured in Billboard Magazine under, "Artist Spotlight: Best New Artist". The songs, "Move On", "Take Me Home", and "Keep 'Em Guessin'", were featured during segments in 2000's ESPN Extreme Games.
So now, we come to the album featured here at CDBaby, "Bar Guest". Released in November 2001, it was recently mentioned in NEUMU.net, under one of it's writer's best of 2001 list. The songs on this album range from: the muscular, pounding groove of "Slip On This"; the unrelenting drive, kinetic beat and dissonance of "Dog Riot"; the unabashedly and uncompromising hooks of "We Get In A Hurry"; to the angular, abstractionism of "Silence of the Day". Probably SparkleJet's most challenging and adventurous work to date.
