The SF Bay Guardian once described us as a cross between Weezer and Queens of the Stone Age. We take that as a high compliment.
When asked why he wrote the song "Don Henley Must Die" Mojo Nixon said "Rock and roll is supposed to be fun, man!" We think those are words to live by.
The Jank is an indie rock band based in San Francisco. They have four members, each of which plays an instrument. Each instrument makes sounds when it is played. Over a period of several minutes at a time, the Jank like to use the sounds of their instruments to form songs. The songs in turn provide background music to drinking alcohol, talking and the playing of billiards. When each song is over, people have been known to clap or whistle. Pop superstar Avril Lavigne has been quoted as saying the Jank are "adequate."
indeed. i have had a listen to your tracks and they are ace!!! glad he has chosen a decent band to replace me with :( i look forward to hearing more and maybe having a jam with you all the next time we are out there.
