| Despite the tender, head-hanging undertones that their name suggests, A3A play charging, dynamic, good ol’ rock-n-roll that is anything but self-loathing. 'City out of Luck' is their debut full-length and it’s ripe with lyric-oriented tunes that are equal parts late-night brawlers and small town dust-kickers. At some point, their punk rock roots collided with the likes of Springsteen, Petty and John Cougar, and their songs are all the better for it. Tim Colina’s drumming and Joey Beck’s solid low end provide the perfect backbeat for Max Fender and Clay Cason’s revved-up guitars. Fender’s voice cuts like a tuft of course steel wool soaked in kerosene—the perfect delivery for songs about working, drinking, living and trying to do the best with what you’ve got. On City out of Luck, the band have done just that. |
