Jet Jaguar (4)

Formed in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 2001, by St. Magellan (Charles Van de Kree). Named after a robot in a Godzilla movie, the group combines elements of punk, metal, industrial, and space rock, with occasional forays into ambient and rave. The group cites Hawkwind, Chrome, Red Noise, Devo, and Zolar-X among their influences. The group's entire catalog was reissued in 2014 on Overlord Records, while their final studio album, Mysteries of Antimatter, was released in 2015, also on Overlord Records. Between the recording of Jet Jaguar's Billion Year Spree and it's release in April 2004 the band went through a lineup change. Performing on the album is the trio from the previous recordings: Charles Van de Kree, Rob Nezzer and Roland Thoms. But today the band is a quartet. Nezzer has left and keyboardists Dave Scott and Ron Grissom have signed up.
