Chris Barnes "The beauty of the JPT Scare Band is it's ability to function as a
unit in the nebulous field of the free-form heavy jam. They start with a chord progression
and the rest is a musical conversation, the direction dictated by unspoken energies. Terry
Swope is a gawdam genius. One of the best all around soul guitarists I've ever heard...
Definitely in the league with the best in that genre."

Jamm Vapour- April 1, 2007, Kung Bomar Records
The
Ripple Effect review, "Ramona" Youtube video,
"They just get into a groove, a steady, freaky space
and hold that intention, moving time and space through their amps. This is where the album
title came from. A full-out acid-drenched jam, allowed to go where ever the vapors
flowed." (Ripple
Effect, Racer)

Jeff Littrell, friend fellow maniac and band mate since 1973, passed away June 5, 2023. He will live on every time you crank up one of the Scare Band songs full fucking blast. I'm quite sure he would appreciate the nod so fire up I've Been Waiting and then crank it up.

Rhapsody SoundBoard - Classic Rock Crate Digger: 10 Essential Proto Metal Albums: "This wonderfully raw mismash of once forgotten demos is proto-metal heaven, particularly the 13 minute opus 'Sleeping Sickness'". "In 2007 Classic Rock Magazine tagged JPT as "the lost pioneers of heavy metal". "That's no overstatement, these dudes slayed with the best of them: Cactus, Black Pearl, Pentagram and so on." |

4/4/2015 -Here's a bit of what
they had to say about the new LP...
..."Acid Acetate Excursion stats with sounds of a radio signal followed by a
man coughing (ala Sweet Leaf by kindred spirits Black Sabbath) and kicks
into some classic blues licks before the rhythm section follows with the
vocals of singer /guitarist Terry Swope. This song is a brilliant
example of the entire ethos of a band doing exactly what they want and even
though it lasts for 15 minutes it feels more like 5!" (click for the
