New co-producer Aaron Kusterer (our lead guitarist) really helped shape the tones and sound on this album.
As a band originating from Los Angeles, how has the city and its music scene influenced your music?
We are students of the history of Los Angeles based music like The Doors, Van Halen, Motley Crue so it always comes through in the music, plus our Latino culture is a big element as well.

Shapeless Faceless, Crime Minister, Subtlety…I love them all.
What can fans expect from Slow Burning Car in the future? Any upcoming shows or plans for new music?

“Vicarious Disclosures” features a cover of Iron Maiden’s “Wasted Years.” What made you choose this particular song to cover, and how did you put your own unique spin on it?
it’s a song I love that I have always performed acoustically at home. We spruced it up with some Bouzouki to give it a byzantine feel.
Slow Burning Car has been making music for over a decade now. How has your sound evolved and what can fans expect from your latest album in terms of musical style and overall experience?
maturity in songwriting both lyrically and musically. More risks sonically regarding production.

Queens Of The Stone Age, New Model Army, Black Sabbath, KISS, The Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper…too many
Can you give us a glimpse on modern rock/metal scene of USA today? What is fresh in the scene and what is the next big thing?
There are a few bands back home called Centershift and Bad Cop/Bad Cop which are great…as far as the next big thing I would hope it is Slow Burning Car!
