Nashville misfits return to the garage

Be Your Own Pet grew up all wrong. They were just teenagers when they split in 2007, old enough to know they weren’t old enough to handle sell-out shows and screaming fans. They return as thirtysomethings with families and medications: “I got two kids and a mortgage, what the fuck?!” Jemima Pearl Abegg shouts on the FOMO anthem “Goodtime!”.

They’re bummed to learn that adulthood breeds more angst than adolescence, which inspires a sharp-edged ’70s hard rock, with songs celebrating kink (“Worship The Whip”) and demanding equal pay and full-body autonomy on “Big Trouble”.
