All gas. No depth.
Posted July 16, 2007
By Nathan,
Stellar Karts first CD "all gas. No brake." Has 11 pop/punk songs that contain shallow lyrics and incomplete messages.
Stellar Kart gave listeners a taste of their album with the singles "spending time", "life is good", and "finish last", unfortunately that's as good as it gets. Most of the tracks are short ("tree climber" does not reach thirty seconds), and "life is good" is snappy, but is overly repetitive and still doesn't' break three minutes.
Also Stellar Kart fails to impress anyone with their lyrics and in some cases ("life is good" and "second chances") are incomplete. While they are not bad they presume that eternal life is good foe everyone. And "Livin' on a prayer" is not very original.
The messages are mostly lame, the music while snappy, begins to wear on the listener after a few spins. "all gas. no brake." Is a rough debut which has potential but, the wise buyer will skip the CD.
