About

Be Your Own Pet is a high-energy rock band from Nashville, known for their raw, punk-infused sound and anarchic stage presence. Formed in the early 2000s, the group features Jemina Pearl Abegg (vocals), Jonas Stein (guitar), Nathan Vasquez (bass), and John Eatherly (drums). Their music embodies a blend of riot grrrl, queercore, and indie rock, drawing influence from the rebellious spirit of 90s punk and garage rock. Their visceral approach and unfiltered lyrics resonate with fans of bands like Bikini Kill and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

How to Sound Like Be your own PET

Be Your Own Pet's sound is fiercely aggressive and unpolished, characterized by the abrasive guitar riffs and chaotic rhythms that underpin their tracks. Their music thrives on a sense of urgency and confrontation, with guitars often employing heavy distortion and fuzz to create a gritty texture. The use of the Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Nano reverb pedal adds a touch of sonic chaos, while the Death By Audio Supersonic Fuzz Gun delivers an explosive fuzz that amplifies their intense sound. Combined with the relentless pounding of drums and bass, Be Your Own Pet's music captures the essence of a youthful rebellion, making it perfect for those looking to channel raw energy and punk spirit.
