Swiss Auto Club

Formed in the relatively obscure and modest Watchung Mountains of suburban New Jersey rather than the legendary and majestic Alps of Switzerland, as their name may imply, Swiss Auto Club have reached a musical summit with the release of If Armies Fought Like the Winter Sun that surprises no one. Even in their formative days, playing under a different moniker (and with a frontman who has long since departed), their sounds and their performances hinted at the band and music to be.
