Slow Burning Car is breathing invigorating life into the rock music
scene with their latest release titled ‘Vicarious Disclosures’. Slow
Burning Car is a LA-based band with five members, and they are: Troy
Spiropoulos on bass & lead/backing vocals, Tommy Marcel on rhythm/lead
guitar, Aaron Kusterer on lead/rhythm guitars, Zak St. John on drums and
Kim Clayborne on backing/lead vocals. Troy Spiropoulos and Aaron
Kusterer were also responsible for producing this new album. Together,
these musicians have put together 10 blazing, hot tracks that will
ignite the rock world.
‘Vicarious Disclosures’ incorporates many elements from early garage
rock, post punk and alternative to heavy metal, hard rock and 90s
grunge. This is Slow Burning Car’s sixth release and I have to say
‘Vicarious Disclosures’ delivers on ALL levels! Excitement is certainly
in the air with this new record, so buckle up and enjoy the ride!
The album kicks off with a song that will stir up many emotions and
thrill the senses and this song is called “Shapeless Faceless”. The
listener is receiving hard-hitting and driving rhythms on “Shapeless
Faceless” and this remains steady from start to finish. “Crime
Minister” is up next, and I simply love the merging of styles on this
one. With creative wordplay on “Crime Minister”, this song has major
appeal and does not disappoint the masses. Track three, “A Winter’s
Purge”, portrays Slow Burning Car with galloping guitars and heavy armor
as these musical gladiators are ready for battle! Now, look up in the
sky…it’s a bird…it’s a plane…no it’s “Cyanide Planes”! This track will
catch your attention right away with a chorus line of “I spy Cyanide
Planes in the sky spraying chemical trails”.
With other potent lyrics like “mass confusion”, “Cyanide Planes” will
certainly get your mind & ears racing. Continue to rock along at a very
fast pace on “Hard Time Walking” and then brace yourself for poetry in
f’in motion on “B.F.U.”. On track seven, “(One For) Subtlety”, punk
rock and hard rock collide to create an atmosphere that is full of
energy & attitude. Get ready for a fully-loaded delivery on
“Millionaire”, where Slow Burning Car includes a raw, garage band feel
with some cool effects added in for good measure. On track nine,
“Wasted Years”, the LA band is reelin’ it back some with more of an
emotional tone and wonderful performance overall. Slow Burning Car ends
on a high note with a smart ‘n’ insightful tune titled “Rudderless
Ship”. The listener is reminded that “you’ll sail today” on “Rudderless
Ship”, so stay on course and allow the wind to guide you. “Rudderless
Ship” is a fine song and nice change of pace as this number will get you
thinking about life.
I am overly impressed with Slow Burning Car and their efforts on this
project. ‘Vicarious Disclosures’ is everything you could want out of a
rock record and then some! Slow Burning Car is sure to gain more fans
and followers after checking out ‘Vicarious Disclosures’. I am
extremely eager to hear more from this band as the musical journey
continues for Slow Burning Car.
