This will be the record that saves 2007 from completely being taken over by the Fall Out Boys of the world [you can quote me on that]. â┚¬Ã…”The underground is a dying breedâ┚¬? could not have been a better title for this album that shows Hot Rod Circuit has always stayed true to the music they believe in whether its popular in the mainstream or not.
The record has a raw production to it that makes you feel like its 1999 again but never once does the production take away from the songs or make you feel like its a bad recording. The drums hit hard during the chorus of â┚¬Ã…”Vampireâ┚¬? which has a subtle hook and a ton of replay value. Lyrically â┚¬Ã…”What we believe inâ┚¬? is the punk version of snow patrols â┚¬Ã…”Chasing carsâ┚¬? with the same vibe of needing to take advantage of the moment.â┚¬?U.S. Royaltyâ┚¬? starts off twangy but quickly jumps into the catchy rock that this band excels in. The singing on â┚¬Ã…”Cali’sâ┚¬? verses has an interesting feel to it, which takes most of the song to get used to.
Hot Rod Circuit returns to the days of â┚¬Ã…”Sorry about tomorrowâ┚¬? on their stellar new new record. My only grip with the album is that it’s over too fast. I urge everyone to race down to the store the day this comes out and pick it up, and roll down the windows as you drive down the freeway.

Hot Rod Circuit Signs To Immortal Records
Indie rockers Hot Rod Circuit have signed to Immortal Records, home of Scary Kids Scaring Kids, A Change of Pace, Brazil, Waking Ashland, and more. You can read a message from the band below.
â┚¬Ã…”Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re really excited to be part of the Immortal Records family. Theyâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ve got a great history and are considered one of the most artist-friendly labels out there today,â┚¬? says singer/guitarist Andy Jackson.
Hot Rod Circuit are currently recording their third album, and first for Immortal Records, in Montgomery, AL. The record will be self-produced and mixed by Tim Oâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢Heir (All American Rejects, The Starting Line, Say Anything).
â┚¬Ã…”Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re excited to be making the record we want to make,â┚¬? Jackson says. â┚¬Ã…”The new albumâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢s going to definitely be a progression for the band. Itâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll have that classic Hot Rod sound, a la Sorry About Tomorrow, but itâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢s gonna be a rocker. Several of the songs have a sort of Tom Petty influence.â┚¬?
In addition to Jackson, the band also features Casey Prestwood (guitar, pedal steel), Dan Duggins (drums), and Joe Ballaro (bass).
â┚¬Ã…”Weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢re looking for the new record to come out in March of 2007,â┚¬? Jackson says. â┚¬Ã…”We expect to have it finished by the end of November. From there, weâ┚¬Ã¢”ž¢ll rest up and start a national tour in February.â┚¬?
