Editor's note

Be Your Own Pet's raw Nashville garage punk

A short-lived but sharp burst of jangly guitars and teenage restlessness from the mid-2000s.

For the full picture, start with 'Damn Damn Leash' and 'Food Fight!'. That's where their sound clicks.

They captured that specific feeling of being young and out of place without overthinking it. Songs like 'Damn Damn Leash' and 'Food Fight!' had a straightforward, unpolished energy that felt immediate. It was garage rock and punk with a driving rhythm section that didn't try to be anything more than what it was.

They formed in Nashville in 2003 and put out their debut 'Get Awkward' the next year. After two more albums, 'Via Caio' and 'Treasure Island', things wound down by 2008. The music kept that raw, unpolished quality across those few years.

Archive material and source history

Be Your Own Pet formed in Nashville in 2003 with Natasha Khan on vocals, John Eatherly on guitar, Jonas Stein on bass, and Jeremy Gomez on drums. Their debut album 'Get Awkward' came out in 2004 and got some attention for its raw energy. Songs like 'Food Fight!' and 'Damn Damn Leash' had that jangly guitar sound and driving rhythm section people associated with garage rock and punk.

Khan's vocals could shift from quiet to intense, and the lyrics often dealt with feeling out of place or personal struggles. They put out two more albums, 'Via Caio' in 2006 and 'Treasure Island' in 2008, before things wound down. The band's music had a straightforward, unpolished quality that felt immediate rather than carefully produced.
