Way Back to the '70snew
It's not metal, mind you, but rock with an emphasis on condensed bursts of guitar riffage, and sliding-scale avalanches.

The album won't necessarily up the Strokes' sales or exposure, but it should garner them more respect.

Moments Feel Cheap and Emptynew

Musician Approaches Craft in Refreshing Stylenew
Not only is this lo-fi ode to a defunct Omaha racetrack intertwined with the particulars of an intense but brief courtship in a reverse Slaughterhouse Five chronology, but it's freewheelingly catchy, bittersweet, and clocks in at a manageable 26 minutes.
