Unleashing the Sunset Strip: American Jetset Revives 80s Sleaze with “We Rule The Night”

If you close your eyes and listen closely, you can almost smell the hairspray, leather, and cheap bourbon wafting off the Sunset Strip. American Jetset is back, and they aren’t just paying homage to the golden era of glam—they are reclaiming it.

Their latest single, “We Rule The Night,” is a high-octane anthem that serves as a sonic time machine to 1985. It’s a masterclass in modern metal that feels right at home between a Shout at the Devil vinyl and a late-night headbanger’s ball.

A Sonic Tribute to the Kings of Hollywood

American Jetset has mastered the delicate art of “Modern Sleaze.” While many bands try to mimic the 80s sound, “We Rule The Night” succeeds because it captures the attitude of the era while maintaining a crisp, heavy, modern production.

The Influences: Dokken, Crue, and Beyond

The track wears its influences proudly on its studded sleeve:

• The Precision of Dokken: You can hear the melodic technicality and soaring vocal harmonies that made George Lynch and Don Dokken legends.

• The Grit of Mötley Crüe: The rhythm section drives with a raw, “Kickstart My Heart” energy that demands a volume knob turned to eleven.

• The Glitz of Pretty Boy Floyd: It captures that unapologetic, flamboyant “Sunset Strip” party vibe where the night never ends and the hooks are always massive.

Why “We Rule The Night” is the Anthem We Need

In an era of over-processed radio hits, American Jetset brings back the guitar hero. The single features blistering solos and a chorus designed for sold-out arenas. It’s a reminder that rock and roll was always meant to be loud, proud, and just a little bit dangerous.

“We Rule The Night” isn’t just a song title; it’s a manifesto for the misfits and dreamers who still believe that rock music can change your life after midnight.
