Artist description
The goal of Wet Jackson is to integrate poetic lyrics with innovative and exciting sounds and music.
Wet Jackson's debut album, Cracking Plastic, came out in 2002. A year later the second album, Across an Astral Ocean has been released. This album contains 18 tracks with a wide range of rock, folk, electronics, and experimental noise.
From the liner notes of the first two albums:
The Myth of Odzen:
Segment I: Cracking Plastic
Again the myth is regurgitated and the music reborn, as canon and drums. It begins again, at the end of an empire’s bloody campaign, and the final battle. A warrior, Odzen, as great as any before, nearly meets his match. The war has been red, many men and much metal has returned to the Earth. Odzen, victorious, is left with nothing, except a memory of home.
Segment II: Across an Astral Ocean
Using driftwood and junk, Odzen’s remnants of the imperial army repair the last ship of the galactic armada, and turn her bow to home. But their country lies across the deep ocean, full of stars, and full of monsters. Voices in the wind sing of their loved ones losing hope, and their country’s decay into a vein tyranny. On the starboard the lips of the sirex tantalize, on the bow the sun scorches, on the port a serpent slithers, and behind are storms and the ghosts of war. Only faith will lead them past the curves of lust and the teeth of doom, onward to home.
