If you want an idea of how Boy Hits Car sounds, take the modern metal agro-crunch guitar styling and throw in a high register vocalist in the vain of Rush's Geddy Lee and more progressive instrumentation.  While it's not what we are used to with the low growl like vocals of other modern metal bands, the tenor of vocalist CRegg really add a new dimension to the sound. The rush comparisons don't stop there, the guitar leads take on an almost Rush style on various tracks. Mixed with the half step stop timing that is so prevalent today among aggressive rock, Boy Hits Car do a convincing job of combining the two genres with the unique vocals and the addition of true lead guitar riffs, not just drop tuning and a semi-progressive rhythm section. The inclusion of clean guitar tracks on some of the songs also adds a more layered feeling. 

Boy Hits Car is a refreshing new take on modern metal that isn't content on just being one of the pack.

This CD is a worthy addition for anyone who likes their music on the heavier side.
