Album DescriptionFormed in the Spring of ?98 in the North West Punk Rock hotbed of Portland, OR, STRAITJACKET cut their teeth as a band sharing the stage with home-town heroes the RIFFS and DEFIANCE and supporting legendary touring acts like the VARUKERS. Over the past few years, they?ve won fans and critical acclaim from their string of EP releases and West Coast Tours. STRAITJACKET?s tight, upbeat sound and call-and-response style vocals have earned them many favorable comparisons to the UK class of ?77 school of Punk Rock, namely the BUZZCOCKS, the CLASH, and STIFF LITTLE FINGERS.
