Static in Stereo
The entire album is written in quasi-diary form, as each song chronicles the obstacles the band faced after Age of Electric. The track “Wrapped in Cellophane” describes the musical and personal metamorphosis that the band members experienced in the months before recording the album. Musically, the album pays homage to the bands that inspired Static in Stereo, such as The Rolling Stones, The Clash, and Kiss. The different musical style of each band member is present throughout the album. Elements of punk, glam rock, country and rock ‘n’ roll can be heard in the musical arrangements of the instruments and vocals. Hard driving guitar and heavy bass are present in most of the tracks. Although the music has a gritty, loud, hard rock sound similar to late metal or grunge, it plays a backseat role to the vocals in both primacy and depth. The sentimentality and honesty of the lyrics allow for the listener to connect with the music, at the same time satisfying the rock ‘n’ roll criteria.
