Jackyl is an American rock band formed in 1990. Their sound has been described as hard rock, heavy metal, Southern rock, and glam metal. The band is probably best-known for its songs "Down On Me", and "The Lumberjack," which features a chainsaw solo by lead singer Jesse James Dupree. Dupree would rev the chainsaw's engine or use the chain brake to slow the engine down to keep the beat.

  • Jackyl is an American rock band formed in 1990. Their sound has been described as hard rock, heavy metal, Southern rock, and glam metal. The band is probably best-known for its songs "Down On Me", and "The Lumberjack," which features a chainsaw solo by lead singer Jesse James Dupree. Dupree would rev the chainsaw's engine or use the chain brake to slow the engine down to keep the beat. He would also perform this stunt live and the number would climax with Dupree slicing up a wooden stool onstage, smashing it, and throwing the sliced pieces out to the crowd. He once had been asked, "How the hell can you play a chainsaw?" to which he responded, "How the hell can you not play a chainsaw?"
  • Jackyl on yhdysvaltalainen rockia soittava yhtye. Heidän musiikkiaan kuvaillaan hard rockin, heavy metalin ja Southern rockin yhdistelmäksi. Yhtye tunnetaan todennäköisesti parhaiten kappaleista "Down On Me", ja "The Lumberjack," jossa kuullaan yhtyeen keulahahmon Jesse James Dupreen moottorisahasoolo. Dupree revittelee sahan moottoria tai käyttää jarrua pysyäkseen rytmissä. Sahaa Dupree käyttää myös lavaesiintymisessään esimerkiksi sahaamalla puisen tuolin ja heittämällä sen palaset yleisön joukkoon
  • I Jackyl sono una band hard & heavy formata nel 1990 ad Atlanta, Georgia. Nati sulle scie stilistiche degli AC/DC e Lynyrd Skynyrd, i Jackyl riuscirono a farsi strada nell'epoca buia dei primi anni 90, proprio in contemporanea all'esplosione del fenomeno musicale grunge. Nonostante il dominio di quest'ultimo, che aveva oscurato all'epoca l'hard & heavy, il gruppo ottenne, grazie al debutto discografico, un enorme successo negli States, tanto da superare oltre i due milioni di copie. Il declino del quintetto iniziò a causa dell'abbandono da parte della major Geffen nei metà anni 90.
  • Jackyl is een Amerikaanse rockband, opgericht in 1990. De sound van Jackyl wordt omschreven als een combinatie van hard rock, heavy metal en Southern rock. Hun muziek wordt soms foutief als glam metal gecategoriseerd. De band is waarschijnlijk het beroemdst door het nummer "The Lumberjack", waarin een solo met een kettingzaag van leadzanger Jesse James Dupree voorkomt. Dupree gebruikt de gas- en remhendels om het toerental van de kettingzaag te sturen en zodoende de kettingzaag als muziekinstrument te bespelen. Hij deed dit ook tijdens optredens met als hoogtepunt Dupree die een houten krukje doormidden zaagt.
