I think @Jason Tate summed it up quite well: “I’ve long argued that Kris may be one of the most underrated songwriters of all time, and I truly mean that. His way of writing, tackling nostalgia and growing up and relationships and life’s ups and downs, is almost peerless in this genre.”

Aerials in the sky When you lose small mind, you free your life Aerials, so up high AERIALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now that thats outta the way. I agree with everything you said. Song sounds like it could've been on So Long, Astoria. Dig it.

Like this a lot!

It does sound like The Gaslight Anthem though, I'm not sure if I would hear it out the same without this write-up, but it's there in some vocals mainly. Really like the song! Pretty cool it's released with a bonus re-recording

As I recall, Kris showcased snippets of some more post-rock-influenced new stuff during his pandemic livestreams in 2020. Will be interesting to see if any of that material shows up on the new album. But man, Car Song is outstanding -- I'm so happy to (finally!) hear new Ataris material! I always felt Kris was the best songwriter of his genre/generation, and this song just shows that he hasn't lost any of that skill. It feels very classic Ataris (nostalgic lyrics, great melodies), and it feels like growth (e.g. a little more rock-n-roll, but not in a way that's out of place). Can't wait for more.

As you all know my favorite band of the past year is Sunday (1994). I finally got to see them tonight and it was everything I expected. They played 2 new tracks from their upcoming EP "Devotion". The title track and their heaviest song by far Still Blue. It's a banger! They signed my record after the show and stayed around to meet each and every fan who wanted to meet them. They're the sweetest bunch of folks. If you haven't listened to them yet give them a go. They're the next big thing I'm telling you! I haven't been this obsessed over a band in forever. I can die happy. [ATTACH]

This is really, really good, although (in a totally selfish way) I'm still hoping for some Welcome The Night-type stuff from him.

Great review. Digging all the Ataris love on the site recently.

I liked the Ataris back in the day, but didn't listen to them that much and I gotta say I love this new song, has a Gaslight Anthem kind of vibe. And Kris's vocals, which sound a little gritter than I remember, are excellent.

Agreed. The highs of Emotional Creature were much stronger than the ones found here. Still a very solid effort.

Enjoyable, but not as good as their last one in 2022, Emotional Creature.
