New Jersey duo Classic Traffic come crashing out of the gate on their sophomore full length You Want It? We Got It! Opener Morbid Orbit is a jolt of energy in the Bob Mould vein but with sweet almost hushed vocals that are low in the mix. And wait, is that a guitar solo? It’s a killer start to another great effort of a band that is only just getting started.
Other highlights on the album are the short and speedy Out of Me, the alt poppin’ Crash Test Buddy, the indie rockin’ High Wire Guy (“Some blamed the wind // Others say he leapt // We all laughed and bet on his behalf // I knew he wouldn’t make it”) and Lonely Palm Reader.
Classic Traffic sure are an easy band to like on You Want It? We Got It!
