After releasing several records on the Orange County punk label Fearless Records, At the Drive-In brought its theatrical blend of punk rock and social revolution to Grand Royal. You could call them El Paso, Texas's worst-kept secret. Their raw, explosive power dominates all of their records, but it blasts still brighter in their head-turning live shows. Combining the fury of Rage Against the Machine and the dub-influenced post-hardcore of Fugazi, At the Drive-In goes beyond any simplistic genre classifications.

After releasing several records on the Orange County punk label Fearless Records, At the Drive-In brought its theatrical blend of punk rock and social revolution to Grand Royal. You could call them El Paso, Texas's worst-kept secret. Their raw, explosive power dominates all of their records, but it blasts still brighter in their head-turning live shows. Combining the fury of Rage Against the Machine and the dub-influenced post-hardcore of Fugazi, At the Drive-In goes beyond any simplistic genre classifications. This is the soundtrack for a complex, thoughtful, and passionate underground revolt. At the Drive-In won't just firebomb your consciousness, they'll ignite it from within, imprinting the deepest recesses of your brain with their searing guitars and relentless rhythms.
Perhaps the most captivating thing about At the Drive-In was the immense energy they put into their live shows. Wether it be guitarist Omar Rodriguez-lopez's uncanny salsa dancing around the stage or frontman Cedric Bixler-Zavala's crowd-taunting antics, the emotion At the Drive-In put into their live show was one of many things that made them stick out of the crowd.
The furious and emotional tracks "Pattern Against User" and "One Armed Scissor" offer a taste of the pure sonic power of At the Drive-In's final full-length album, Relationship of Command. The record is an arresting sonic attack, highlighted by vocalist Cedric Bixler's confrontational, rhythmic, rapid-fire delivery. Sadly, At the Drive-in split in 2001, shortly after the sucess of Relationship of Command. At the Drive-In remains an inspiration to many modern rock musicians today, and they will surely be missed. « hide |
