Jefferson Pitcher : Jet Black (Jawbreaker cover)

Taken from the EP Six Black Fishes Please. Subscribe to Jefferson Pitcher at YouTube:    / @jeffersonpitcher   In this video, I worked to play with/subvert the trend of YouTube stars lip-syncing to their super professional, glossy, studio recordings, as they attempt to convince us that it’s all live. It’s troubling to me, this obfuscation. https://www.jeffersonpitcher.com   / jeffersonpitcher   Creative Direction: Jefferson Pitcher Performed by: Jefferson Pitcher and Tilden Pitcher Cinematography and Editing: Jefferson Pitcher Jet Black written by Jawbreaker This version arranged by Jefferson Pitcher Recorded by Jefferson Pitcher @ Shumoto Sound Room Engineered and mixed by Andrew Oedel @ Ghost Hit Recording Mastered by Harris Newman @ Grey Market Mastering Jefferson Pitcher : Guitars, Vocals, Bass Tilden Pitcher : Drums At the tender age of 16, standing against the stage at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, CA, I saw Jawbreaker for the first time. It was sometime in the late '80s, and they became my favourite band overnight. I can hardly explain what I would give for footage of that inaugural viewing, during which the band began playing With or Without You by U2, and Blake asked someone to climb onto the stage and help sing. Yep, that was me. I bought their first 7", Whack and Blight that evening, which I listened to over and over, and I saw them every time they played if I could get there. Berkeley, San Francisco, Oakland... When you're young and you love a band and you get to see them play on a regular basis, they become a part of you in a substantive and meaningful way. I bought their first LP Unfun, (also at Gilman Street) and I listened to it obsessively, feeling that they alone were taking punk rock in a new direction. I could tell many stories of driving all over the Bay Area in my 1966 Volvo to see them, wondering how to carve such a path in my own life. I’m sure I have photos in my disorganized boxes. I recall feeling at the time, that 24 Hour Revenge Therapy was the best punk record I had ever heard, and I continued to drive from Davis (where I attended college) down to the Bay Area for shows. It’s all a rather long story, but many in the local scene were deeply critical of their signing to Geffen (after years on small, independent labels) and were incredibly dismissive of the record. Not me. I thought, and still think, that Dear You was a masterpiece. And while it was hard to feel like we were losing our local heroes to the giant machine of music, who was I to judge? It’s easy to be critical of the decisions that other artists make, when we are not standing in their shoes. They turned me on to Kerouac too, so there's that. I have loved this band for a long time now and I love this song, Jet Black, so much. I spent some time yesterday looking through old 7” records, many of the covers clearly xeroxed, with such love and longing in my heart. The consumption of music has simply gone off the rails. I’ll leave it at that for now.
