Flat Duo Jets were an American rockabilly duo—just drums and guitar—whose minimalist approach to the genre was innovative and thrilling. Safari, their 1993 Norton Records album, captures the raw energy of their live sound. With two musicians creating a full-bodied roar, it's testament to the power of rhythm and riff. The album bristles with attitude and swagger. Their rockabilly leans hard into primal, almost punk-influenced 50s rock and roll energy, stripped of sentimentality. If you want rockabilly that sounds urgent and dangerous rather than nostalgic, this is essential. A criminally underrated record that deserves wider recognition.
