Are You Free?

2017 release. Crash City Saints are back with the long awaited follow up to Glow In The Dark Music, which inspired rave reviews back in 2010. The band says their music sounds like a sandblaster spraying sugar, but we say it sounds like everything great that's ever existed. Are You Free? might be the best shoegaze influenced album released all year, and yet it's so much more than that. The album's 12 songs have more hooks than a lazy Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman, more hooks than an English phonebook, more hooks than the VHS section of your local thrift store, more hooks than the lyrics to the world's second-favorite Blues Traveler song. At times, Crash City Saints sound like a power pop band in shoegaze clothing.
