Slow Building’s seventh full-length album, Crash Landings, Coincidences, Chaos, delivers garage-rock. Songwriter Jason Legacy says that this album is “the culmination of two years of personal upheavals, making bad decisions, and unwisely trusting the wrong people.” The lyrics aren’t cheerful—“I left my spine on the firing line” Legacy sings on the album’s lead song “Red Flag Surrender.” The guitar on these tracks punches and the emotionally-charged vocals deliver honesty. It’s not winning Battle of the Bands, but we do think that the crowd would find unexpected pleasure in headbanging to Legacy’s sung trauma.
