The Cops
Ive been told, at different times, in
different places, that I look like Mike
Birbiglia, which we do have a few things
in common. For example, we share the
same first name. Were both guys who
play to a l ive audience, and though Id bestretching to find many more similarities,
I guess I see where people are coming
from.
Im Michael Jaworski of The Cops. I
provide vocals and guitar for our band,

reading in front of a fireplace. Or waitthis isnt a Match.com ad. I actually want to talk a
little about The Cops today, because with all the side projects the guys and I are running
these days theres been too much speculation on our band splitting up.
Listen, weve been together since 04, and were not going anywhere. John (Randolph) is
just starting to do his best guitar worksome super experimental rhythms and leads,
David (52) Weeks has more energy for his drums than ever. Drew (Saintly) Church might
be working on a side project with guys from The Shins, but that doesnt mean he isnt
laying down the finest bass-lines in the business for The Cops. Were a team.

Ill be the first to admit, my work with Virgin Islands has been deeply fulfilling and I
enjoy the challenge of contributing to a vastly different sound than what The Cops create,
but just because I have involved myself in two bands doesnt mean Im losing my loyalty
to my origins. Imagine if you will, devoting all your time to watching only movies with
the same actor or reading only books by the same author, heck, listening to music only by
one band. Youd get bored.
The truth is, we all need variety, and I know many of you
have seen the horrors of lead vocalists going rogue. Think
of Scott Stapp (I hate myself just a little bit for even
writing that name, but the guy fits my illustration like a
glove). Stapp had success with Creed and yet he went off
solo and burned up in a fiery crash of crappy music.
Remember Steve Perry? What about Wyclef Jean?
I guess what Im saying is I know better than to run
around like Im the gift that made The Copsgreat. Were
great because were us. You can see, by my choice to
contribute to another band that its not notoriety and
fame Im out fornot as a solo act. Instead, my fellow
band mates and I have done more like the guys from
Pearl Jam. We have an open door policy. Go experiment with different forms of music.
Form new bands. Best of luck, is the mentality we all have for each other.

As the vocalist for The Cops, I know I need a lot of inspiration to search out the lyrics
that will give our songs philosophical depth. The way I find greater depth that matches
our bands tone is to experiment with other tones. You know, certain topics are perfectly
suited for the heavy driving rock sound The Cops are known for, and thats what I want to
continue to bring to our work.
As were working on our new album, all new
material, I thank our l isteners and fans for
supportive encouragement. As we continue

to tour, its wonderful to see so many faces
in the crowd. We love hearing a chorus of
voices singing along to their favorite songs.
As always, our favorite part of the music is
performing for the audience. So, as the new
music flows in, well be waiting to see our
fans crammed into the venues where we
turn up the volume and jam like theres no
tomorrow.
Heres a more informational facts of The Cops
The Cops are a band of the people; born out of repression, revulsion, frustration and all
the other things that make life so horrible and rock bands so great. Dynamiting the walls
of classic rock and rebuilding on the crumbling foundations, The Cops have constructed a
set filled with scratching, twitching, aching, unholy rock music that still manages to be
both familiar and crucially entertaining. Topical without being political and political
without being preachy. The Cops have written albums that are full of roughhousing
manifestos broadcast from roughly 5.3 meters below the sidewalk of every major street
in the world. No fuss, no muss, no stupid hippie haircuts. No shit.
The Cops formed in July of 2004 with Michael Jaworski on lead vocals and guitar, John
Randolph on guitar, David Weeks on drums, and Brian Wall on bass guitar. Seattle indie
label Mt. Fuji Records released their debut EP Why Kids Go Wrong in March of 2005,
and the bands debut full-length Get Good or Stay Bad in November of 2005. Drew
Church replaced Brian Wall on bass in early 2006 and the newly christened line-up went
on to release their critically acclaimed sophomore full-length Free Electricity in
November of 2007 (Mt. Fuji Records / Control Group Co.). Free Electricity was recorded
with the bands spiritual godfather Kurt Bloch (The Fastbacks, Young Fresh Fellows) and
mixed by the multi-talented producer Johnny Sangster (Mudhoney, Old Haunts, The

Some people have been talking about The Cops:
On Free Electricity, the Cops staccato stop-and-go six-string rhythms couple with
abusive drumming to create a surprisingly danceable set. Mega Suicide and Secret
Lives pummel like guitar-fueled bulldozers, though they serve as exceptions to the
dance-rock rule. Its Epidemic opens the album with a frantic mess of jutting guitars,
while the sparse but insanely catchy Light It Off evokes images of a beefed-up Spoon.
Islands sounds like better amplified !!!, while Modern Black Flats compares to Wire
and Gang of Four 45s played at 33 1/3 RPM. Its the organ-drenched blast Cold Crushin
that steals the disc, mimicking a scream-less Blood Brothers to rump-shaking effect. -
SPIN.com
On the scale of bands with boot-licking law-enforcement names, the Cops rock much
harder than, say, reunited corporate whiners the Police and more tunefully than
torturously arty noisemakers Cop Shoot Cop. The Seattle quintet kick it out with plenty
of punky energy and driving guitars on their 2005 CD, Get Good or Stay Bad (Mt. Fuji
Records), with Michael Jaworskis raggedy singing coming together with John Randolphs
backup vocals for rousing shout-along choruses on Negative Cutting and We Are the
Occupants. Theres a Brit-punk kind of squalor and swagger on tracks like Dont Take It
Personal Dave, and the Cops finish things off with a properly seedy version of Wires
Lowdown. As with Stay Bad, the Cops upcoming CD, Free Electricity (due in early
November), was recorded with the Fastbacks Kurt Bloch, who keeps it all dirty rather
than gussying up everything with too much polish. Theyve since added a new member,
Brandon Bay, giving them three guitarists to trade off with bassist Drew Church on the
jagged, stop-start riffage of the upcoming albums Its Epidemic. -LA Weekly
When first seen in concert, the Cops lead singer Michael Jaworski somehow reminds me
of better-known musical frontman Britt Daniels. It might be the way they dress, or their
stiff-backed, onstage persona, but there is a definite air of similarity between the two

forces of evil in power here at home and some of the societal woes that continue to
plague the common man. With Get Good or Stay Bad, dissent and rebellion have never
sounded so good. -MXDWN
Passionate and excitingThis is a well-realized punk revival effort that attempts to
capture the meaning, in addition to simplify the musical form, of their influences. -30
Music
Fuck. Finally. A band that gets the influences of 77 and make it their own. The Cops
show how to take those dusty ole albums from the 70s and run them through a time
machine making their urgent cries of Wake the fuck upits 2006 as their immortal
loot and grab of the best riffs that rocknroll has to offer from the pasty thirty years run
through their songs. Essential. -Poptones
