FFO That Dog, Veruca Salt, Fountains Of Wayne, Quicksand, professional wrestling. Debut album ‘Jobber To The Stars’ due out this friday via Exploding In Sound Records.

NYC fuzz rock tag team, Jobber, are releasing their debut album, they’re back with one more finishing move before they pin you at the end of the week: ‘Clothesline From Hell’. The final single from LP is a nearly five minute epic of fuzz-drenched guitars and musclebound melodies that’s sure to be stuck in your head by the end of the first chorus. Band excel at blending the larger than life themes of pro wrestling with real pathos and a giant dose of distortion, and this single makes it clear that this is a record that’s just as much for wrestling fans as it is for headbangers and power poppers alike. Meizner discussed the new song, saying:

“‘Clothesline From Hell’ is about learning to emotionally detach from my job and draw clear lines to protect your personal time. -I only come here to get paid- is the thesis of the song—the mantra I have to repeat and internalize when the 9:00 to 5:00 grind is really getting to me, or when my job begins to feel more like an identity, and starts impacting my self-worth. Internalizing the mantra, and protecting this boundary, is the only way for me to maintain any semblance of sanity. Musically, I was inspired by Queens Of The Stone Age in the groove and structure.”
