Been a band for 10 years still nobody knows what to make of Lame Drivers: “a young Replacements or Guided By Voices?” “like the Buzzcocks getting a reacharound from the Descendents?” “Pell Mell?” “Jesus & Mary Chain?” “the Clean as a girl group doing a talkie?” “Killed By Death / Memb. Home Blitz?” WFMU’s Terre T calls it “all my favorite rock elements.” Led by fellow WFMU DJ Jason Sigal, Lame Drivers treat the band like a freeform radio show channeling everything from Ethiopiques to Krautrock through a classic power trio. “Teenline power pop is their natural fighting weight,” KFJC’s Thurston Hunger writes in a review that picks out bits of everything from Graham Parker to Jay Reatard, “but they’ll weird it up!”

* in 2011, New York Rock Market claimed that “Lame Drivers Have Not Received The Recognition They Deserve From The Internet”.
