The Buck Pets

The Buck Pets were an American alternative rock band formed in the late 1980s in Dallas, Texas. They were clearly influenced by earlier bands such as The Replacements, Buzzcocks and The Jesus and Mary Chain but incorporated better production values and more overt nods to classic rock than their college rock/punk predecessors. The band also had opening spots on tour with larger acts such as Neil Young (Ragged Glory Tour) and Jane's Addiction, but in the end, The Buck Pets failed to see commercial success.

The Buck Pets var en amerikansk musikgrupp som bildades 1987 i Dallas, Texas. Buck Pets musikstil har tydliga influenser av band som The Replacements, The Buzzcocks och The Jesus and Mary Chain. The Buck Pets fick mycket support av sitt skivbolag Island som stod bakom de två första skivorna, The Buck Pets och Mercurotones. Bandet lyckades dock aldrig slå igenom stort under sin tid. Men det fanns många fans i Dallas och i Norman, Oklahoma där de fortfarande saknas av många.

The Buck Pets were an American alternative rock band formed in the late 1980s in Dallas, Texas. They were clearly influenced by earlier bands such as The Replacements, Buzzcocks and The Jesus and Mary Chain but incorporated better production values and more overt nods to classic rock than their college rock/punk predecessors. The band seemed to get a degree of support from their record label, Island, for their first two LPs, the hard edged The Buck Pets, and the more melodic follow up Mercurotones. On the eve of the release of Mercurotones, Island was bought by PolyGram- the A&R staff were let go and projects were shelved while the new owners evaluated their new property. Support for The Buck Pets was then almost non-existent. The band also had opening spots on tour with larger acts such as Neil Young (Ragged Glory Tour) and Jane's Addiction, but in the end, The Buck Pets failed to see commercial success. As a coda, The Buck Pets released the more restrained, melancholy album To the Quick in 1993 on the independent label Restless. On April 10, 2010, The Buck Pets reunited for a one night show at the club Trees in the Deep Ellum area of Dallas, Texas and released RARES (and unreleased) a collection of rare and previously unreleased material.

Bandet slutade spela öppet år 1993 efter den sista skivan To The Quick som blev ett stort misslyckande och ignorerades nästan helt.
