Philadelphia-based indie rockers Grocer returned with their new album, Bless Me, last month via Grind Select.
One of the highlights from the LP is “Golden Sedan”, a song they say is about “being stressed in the car”.” It’s a punchy blend of 90s-led indie rock with a raw garage rock element and some sharp guitar work with an artful charm.
Speaking on the track, the band’s Cody Nelson adds:
“Golden Sedan is a look back at a common thread throughout my life, which is being stressed out in the car. As a lifelong traveling musician and anxiety sufferer, I’ve had many of the highest and lowest moments of my life within a van I couldn’t escape for another few minutes (or hours). The lyrics also briefly touch on personal accountability and the illusion of childhood autonomy, but my main goal was exploring the fight or flight response that too often seems to arise for me while on the road.”
