Jagged Spiral doesn't generally do product endorsements, but sometimes something comes along that surprises us with its simplicity and moxie. Things like that warrant public approval, especially when all three of us are in agreement.

At the Apocalyptica concert last April, we each downed at least two shots of something called a Jag-bomb. (Pronounced Yag-Bom) At least, I only remember having two.

For those not in college, a Jag-Bomb is a combination of Jagermeister and Red Bull.

I know what half of you are about to say. "Are you Insane? Mixing something that makes people Fight with something that gives people Energy?" The other half were going to say, "Are you Insane? Mixing something that tastes like Cough Syrup with something that tastes like Radioactive Camel Urine?"

Agreed on both counts, however, there is some strange co-mingling of effects and flavors with the two ingredients, and the end result is less undesirable than you would expect.

The drink is an interesting dichotomy of emotional directions, much like Jagged Spiral's music. Therefore, we are announcing that the Official Drink of Jagged Spiral is the Jag-Bomb. If you ever come see us live, [Editors Note: Like at the July 11th CD Release party for example...] try one out, it will definitely put a unique spin on your perception of our live sound...
