It’s been 17 years now since El Paso’s emotive rock heroes At the Drive-In released their seminal work Relationship of Command, chock full of hard rock riffs and speed metal rhythms that often stop on a dime and change direction as naturally as a school of fish. For fans that bore witness during ATDI’s heyday, these songs were best heard during the band’s legendarily raucous and completely uninhibited live performances bred from the indie basement scene. Recently reunited and a little bit wiser, they dropped their latest in•ter a•li•a in May and have 17 years worth of pent-up aggression to release on tour.
