What does the name 2nd Place Driver mean? Nothing in particular actually. It’s best to see it as a good metaphor for the stunning way in which the band is heading for the number one position. The band translates the term ‘electro-rock’ in an adventurous, exiting and simply bloodcurdling beautiful way. These gentlemen make real songs of which the melodies in particular are disarming. But 2nd Place Driver can be found pounding their instruments as well. While on stage, the band plays their songs in such way that all its layers, dynamics and profundity turn out in an undisputed climax. The sky is the limit actually. In the beginning of 2003 they launched their first nameless effort. The combination of David Bowie’s song writing abilities, the industrial feeling of Nine Inch Nails, the freshness of Millionaire and the somewhat elusive, dark sounds of Depeche Mode, as well as 2nd Place Driver’s own thick autograph were hailed by press and public alike.
