Tampa hard-rock band Jar (stylized in all caps) probably didn’t mean to write a gun safety anthem, but the title track on its new EP, Accidental Discharge, is a headbanging reminder that firearms are nothing to fuck with.

Tickets to see Jar play Deviant Libation in Tampa on Sunday, May 19 are still available for $12.
