Fronted, as always, by singer/guitarist Sam Prekop, the quartet launches into a Neu! -like motorik sound with the driving "Aerial," and later moves into Velvet Underground territory on the chiming and urbane "On a Letter.".

Reviews"The Set Is Dominated by Neat Three and a Half Minute Packages of Semi-Supercharged Guitar Pop.", "They sound as tight as they ever have, as if after 14 years of playing together the band has developed a kind of musical mind-meld.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The hot licks and cool groove of 'New Schools' are the whole record in microcosm, each play revealing subtle shades and a pleasure in the details.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Post-rock inflections, electronic embellishments, artfully designed arrangements and time changes, and the sighing vocals and breathy phrasing of guitarist/vocalist Sam Prekop. True to form, the band deliver yet again on CAR ALARM.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "CAR ALARM picks right up on the coiled grooves of its predecessor with heated opener 'Aerial' and 'Fuller Moon,' which brings a taut bounce into play.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Pristine set-opener 'Aerial' and the elegantly gliding 'on a Letter' jangle and chime with mathematical precision...", "A technically accomplished bunch of breezy West Coast pop songs perfect to listen to when the sun is setting."
