Isaac Thompson Reviews ‘Brake Lights’

scratchtrack — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 17:54:12 +0000

From the very first driving guitar lick on ‘Change It Up’, it’s very clear
Scratch Track is back with new music and it’s better than ever. The distinct
sound coming from this two-man band’s explosion of music carves out a niche
all their own. ‘Kick It’ once again shows the versatility and creativity of
beats as ‘As Long As’ captures listeners with a catchy groove that fans of
the band are accustomed to hearing. Another solid EP from a band that just
continues to raise the bar with each new offering.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

☆☆☆ 93 stars out of 100

I’ve been known to give Jason and DJ a hard time about stepping their game up and writing “Hits”. After all, it’s 2011 and NO ONE really likes music anymore… Do they?

They’ve done a great job at making me eat my words with Brake Lights. It’s nothing short of a Macy’s Day Parade of “Hits”. They made great strides with the production on this record. Jason’s guitars rock from start to finish. The guy gets guitar tones that others only dream of. DJ’s vocals blend with the music better then they ever have, and his beat box sounds better than most drum sets. I still don’t understand how that works!

Don’t Get Too Close ( To Me ) made me do something I haven’t done since I watched Armageddon…. Cry. Thanks, Mr Hamlin, thanks a lot.

☆☆☆☆ 4 out of 5

If The Legend of Wild Bill had a love child with Interpretations of the Afterwards, it would sound a bit like Brake Lights. This album, at times, can get as hard as the asphalt these two guys have been traveling on. Seasoned mountainmen, this album retains the original sound that defines Scratch Track while simultaneously paying homage to all those that have given influence. This album is both a look in the rearview and a hand on the throttle. Don’t get caught in traffic or a broken down van without this one.
