A stylish and soulful production, “Tearing Down Your Walls” is a resonating new track from Los Angeles-based trio Crash Your Car. The release represents the first single from the second installment of their saga, Humanity Dies With Earth, which “tells the story of 3 car mechanics, abducted by aliens, returning to earth 50 years later with a message of imminent doom.”
Thumping bass and stutter-y keys surround suave vocals and an eventual brass embrace, with the title-touting vocal transfixing amidst the soulful instrumentation. “Tearing Down Your Walls” compels with its jazzy, atmospheric allure throughout, fronted by a stirring title-touting refrain that’s wholly replay-inducing. A more expansive feeling to the brass and keys flourishes in the satisfying, cohesive conclusion.
