Having been formed in the early 1970s, Kansas Citys JPT Scare Band are still going strong today and this double album reissue of their seminal first 2 albums (recorded in the early 70s and out of print since the early 90s); show just how they started with their acid soaked psychedelic brand of rock.
Often cited as a proto metal band, JPT Scare Band are riffs, jams and guitar freakouts and their influence can be heard in bands like Orange Goblin today.
"Acid Acetate Excursion" starts with the sounds of a radio signal followed by a man coughing (ala "Sweet Leaf" by kindred spirits Black Sabbath) and kicks into some classic blues licks before the rhythm section follows with the vocals of singer/guitarist Terry Swope. This song is a brilliant example of the entire ethos of a band doing exactly what they want and even though it lasts for 15 minutes it feels more like 5! The title track and "Slow Sick Shuffle" (which is aptly titled as that is exactly what goes on in the song) are completely instrumental and feature some awesome guitar from Swope as the riffs swirl in time with drummer Jeff Littrel and bassist Paul Grigsby. Album closer King Rat is another instrumental track and this 13 minute wigout is a great way to go out, all fuzzy riffs and cranking bass with a punishing outro complete with whooping cheers right the end!
"Rape Of The Titans Sirens" is the second album of the reissue and follows the same formula but with heavier riffs and a heightened melodic feel on "Its Too Late" which is a lost gem and should have been a massive hit, "Ive Been Waiting", "Time To Cry" and the title track are all jams that showcase the JPT Scare Band sound to full effect.
This band ought to be a lot bigger than they are and should be held in the same reverence as similar bands like Cream and Blue Cheer and hopefully these reissues should get them a lot of new fans as anyone who is into heavy psychedelic rock should check them out. (Gavin Brown/circuitsweet.co.uk)
JPT Scare Band took its name from its members first initials and their "scary" acid rock sound. Although the band did not release their first album until the early 1990s, they had formed in the early 1970s and made numerous recordings on a reel to reel tape deck in a basement.
The first two legendary, seminal albums from Acid Rock/Proto metal pioneers, JPT Scare Band. These are the albums that created their legacy, finally re-released on vinyl for the first time in more than 20 years. Fully remastered by none other than Tony Reed. Pressed on two slabs of gorgeous clear vinyl, limited to 300 copies. According to Sleezegrinder "JPT Scare Band was the death metal of early 70's hard rock. Formed in 1973, their nearly free-form, psyche metal went further than any band before them. The aptly named band constructed towering walls of terrifying, evocative, druggy guitar noise, but played mostly for like-minded stoners in their rehearsal space, leaving them one of the most obscure protometal innovators" (Ripple Music)
