If you’re getting just a little sick and tired of all the airy lo-fi garage pop rock psychedelicness streaming out of the Atlanta airwaves these days, and are yearning for something with more power and backbone, Mice in Cars might just be your ticket. Heavy on ’90s era post-grunge guitars, the Atlanta trio craft surprisingly versatile alt-rock that swings effortlessly from bruising riffs to well-textured Hum-esque space rock. Their latest EP, and third studio cut overall, Burn the Reader, was recently released on the group’s Bandcamp page where it can be downloaded for a measly $3. That’s money well spent, folks.
Recorded in various locations including a basement, a bathroom and the Highland Ballroom, the five-song EP was mixed and mastered by Nerd Parade’s Randy Garcia. There’s nothing mind-blowing about the contents, but the material is deftly written and tightly played, with just enough sonic resonance to make you want to hang around and dig deeper.
