Most of Never Better, P.O.S' third album, was written in a moving car. He conjures get-away cars, racing chariots, the pursuit of sirens, and the occasional rueful nighttime drive, all at full-clip to ride-rolling drums and revving distortion. There's an urgency that he keeps in careful check, and then unleashes for spring-loaded verses that represent his best work. P.O.S built his reputation as an innovator, with an unlikely punk rock past and expressive, honest content.

P.O.S. performed live at Amoeba Berkeley on Monday April 20th.
