Release Notes:
Unlike most musicians, Jeff Tucker wasnt one of those bright-eyed kids who
begged his parents for guitar lessons at age 3. He didnt sing along to Queen in
front of a mirror, using a shampoo bottle as a microphone, at age 12. He didnt
star as Teyve in his high schools production of Grease. His family didnt urge
him to follow his dreams of being a rock star. Because he didnt have any.
Instead, Jeff Tucker, now lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter for Los
Angeles-based alt-rock quintet Rock Kills Kid, was a socially withdrawn, barely
employed, directionless 19 year old. Writing songs saved him. You can hear it
all over the 11 jagged tracks he wrote for Rock Kills Kids debut Are You
Nervous. The albums emotional tension recalls some of the most angst-filled
recordings of the late 70s and 80s by U2, The Cure, Joy Division and The Smiths.
