Foot Fetish is the first solo studio album by the Jackyl singer Jesse James Dupree, released in 2000. [3] [4]

Contents

"Mainline" peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. [5]

Critical reception

AllMusic wrote that "songs such as the album-opening 'Mainline' and 'Losing My Mind' would've sounded splendid on Headbanger's Ball circa 1989." [2] The Lincoln Journal Star thought that the album "finds a more musically mature, but still hard-rocking, Dupree playing a batch of songs he wrote for himself and not the band." [6] The Times & Transcript called it a "cheesened lump of boozey bluesy riff-raffling mucho-macho metal pop drivel." [1] The Daily Post stated that "the driving, unbridled strength of Dupree's music is not only catchy, but also rather addictive." [7]
