Making A Door Less Open, the new album from Car Seat Headrest is the first set of brand-new songs since Teens Of Denial. Making a Door Less Open is the result of a fruitful “collaboration” between Will Toledo, and 1 Trait Danger, a electronic side project
In March of 2022, Car Seat Headrest brought their "explosive" (Brooklyn Vegan) live show to Brooklyn Steel in New York in support of their 2020 LP 'Making a Door Less Open.'
Car Seat Headrest's Will Toledo pulled from the classics when devising the lyrics and story arc of 'The Scholars,' while the music draws, carefully, from classic rock story song cycles such as The Who's 'Tommy' and David Bowie's 'Ziggy Stardust.'
His first real "studio" album with an actual band, Will Toledo moves from bedroom pop to something approaching classic rock grandeur and huge narrative ambitions, with nods to the Cars, Pavement, Jonathan Richman, Wire, and William Onyeabor.
