Crustacean welcomes The Jaggernauts

Once, there was nothing. Then suddenly, with a giant explosion, atomically charged molecules sped through space, each riding a cloud of gasses. From these atomic molecules, the members of The Jaggernauts were formed, each singularly created to kick the exact amount of ass that needs to be kicked. David Bowie, Descendants, Oingo Boingo, Kiss, Black Flag, Husker Du, Mudhoney, and The Dead Kennedys all combined to create a group of friends who want to sonically peel the paint off of your house. We believe in chaos, beauty, kindness, violence, and the perfection that happens when we play music together. The Jaggernauts will rock you. You will therefore be rocked. Resistance is futile.

The Jaggernauts new cd is now available in on the catalog page for purchase.

30th Anniversary Parties

We will be celebrating 30 years of Crustacean Records with a pair of parties this September. On this weekend, The Jaggernauts will be unleashing upon the world the 101st release on the label. It’s been quite a ride. Thank you for your support over all of these years and I hope to see you there – Crusty.
