If 2005's "Shallow" was Pissed Jeans coping with moving out of their parents' homes and 2007's "Hope For Men" their initial reaction to the mechanical lifestyle of a wage-earner, "King Of Jeans" is their formal and uneasy acceptance of adulthood, by way of one hell of a rock record. Working with renowned producer Alex Newport (who holds a Fudge Tunnel pedigree and has worked with such luminaries as At The Drive-In, The Locust and Sepultura), Pissed Jeans have pushed further into the raw, minimal core of heavy rock music with "King Of Jeans." Masters of the mundane, beasts of the banal, high priests of the humdrum: these four, white, male high school graduates hardly look further than their own appendages for artistic inspiration, content to execute their own brand of brash and heavy punk music in the Joe Carducci-approved standard rock formation of guitar, bass, drums and vocals. Vinyl version includes coupon for free MP3s of the entire album.
