be your own PET (stylized in this particular way), or BYOP, was a relatively short-lived indie band active in the mid to late '00s that played an aggressive form of garage rock. By the time the band split up a few years later, before even the decade was over, their powerful attack and pure punk rock energy plus vocalist Jemina Pearl's brash delivery had left a mark on the scene. They reunited in 2022 and released the album Mommy the following year, where they continued to embrace the punk rock sound though now perhaps with a slight hard rock twang. The guitars and the vocals may not be as fiery these days, the sound may be dialled down a notch with more emphasis placed on the songs having a melodic core, but the essential ingredients that defined their music earlier still seem to be intact and fully operational.
