Drive Like Jehu (1991) |
Hand Over Fist/Bullet Train to Vegas (1992) |
Drive Like Jehu is a self-titled post-hardcore album by the San Diego, California band Drive Like Jehu, released in 1991 by Cargo Records and Headhunter Records. It was the band's first full-length album and its artwork was created by singer/guitarist Rick Froberg.
Though not as highly regarded as their second and final album Yank Crime, the album did gain the notice of the emerging noise rock and math rock movements, which would later lead many fans to regard Drive Like Jehu as a link between these genres. The album also helped to attract the attention of major record labels, leading both Drive Like Jehu and guitarist John Reis' other band Rocket From the Crypt to sign a lucrative deal with Interscope Records.
