lost highway Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Heavy on the "Jaw" I notice, Jawbreaker and Jawbox. Are they related? Thanks for asking! While Jawbreaker and Jawbox once shared a split 7", they weren't too closely associated with Jawbreaker being a NY/California entity, and Jawbox being a DC group. I love both because they took the punk rock vitality of their respective musical communities and brought it somewhere arguably not in the punk rock mold. Jawbreaker did this through its strikingly poetic lyrics and emotional vulnerability, which was unthinkable at the time of political soapboxing and iron-clad sarcasm and humor. Their lyricist Blake Schwarzenbach could write a Salinger-worthy narrative into a song, or extend an apt metaphor over several verses and choruses, as evidenced here by "The Boat Dreams From the Hill": https://youtu.be/aogeXRqhETg If Jawbreaker's triumph was one of the heart, Jawbox broke the punk mold by taking a more cerebral approach to music. Keeping much of the muscle, but adding more thoughtful flourishes of melody, discord, rhythmic complexity, and counterpoint. One of their biggest musical triumphs is this song, Savory: https://youtu.be/zU8DCS1JKbI Both bands had classic, disastrous major-label outings in the 90's. Jawbreaker in fact was in the supporting slot for one of Nirvana's final tours. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
