SLADE & ENGLAND slam the accelerator to the floor with โJET CAR,โ their futuristic rock-pop thrill ride released on November 20, 2025. Built on the creative chemistry between London musician Tony England and lyricist Michael Slade, the track takes their partnership into bold new territory. After charming listeners with their off-beat Christmas singles, the duo veer sharply into groove-rock terrain, embracing a sound thatโs bigger, brighter, and buzzing with momentum.
Englandโs long-lived performance roots, Glastonbury, Bestival, The Give Festival, spill easily into the trackโs larger-than-life energy. His melodic uplift and emotional colour meets Sladeโs imaginative, Beatles-tinged storytelling, sparking effortless and freshly charged collaboration. โJET CARโ was born from a playful โwhat if?โ where speed becomes freedom, imagination becomes propulsion, and the listener gets swept up in a ride that refuses to let up.
Right from the jump, the song snaps into gear with a tight, catchy beat and shimmering cymbals. Melodic, vibrant guitar lines glide over the groove before England enters with sly, flirty, and sharply charismatic vocals, that races past you. His voice slashes through with just the right bite and sexiness, leaning into the glam-rock attitude inspired by Bowie, Marc Bolan, and Stereophonicsโ anthemic Dakota. Beneath it all, the groove-rock bass riff drives everything forward like a turbo engine, instantly recognisable and impossible to sit still through.
Producer Chris Daniel adds the final polish, injecting modern punch while keeping the songโs retro-futuristic charm intact. Recorded near the storied Eel Pie Island, โJET CARโ carries a lineage of British rock eccentricity, full of imagination, movement, and pure escapist joy. Itโs fun, itโs infectious, and it flashes by with a grin: the sound of a band embracing speed, freedom, and the thrill of blasting past limits.
