Gasoline, the second album from North Delta, British Columbia's Theory of a Deadman, came out on March 29, 2005, first at home on 604 Records and then in the States through Roadrunner. It's post-grunge built for the highway: Tyler Connolly's gravelly snarl out front, Dave Brenner's guitar crunching alongside his, Dean Back and drummer Brent Fitz locking the rhythm down, and a little country twang sneaking in around the edges.
"No Surprise" and "Santa Monica" were the radio hooks, and together with "Say Goodbye" and "No Way Out" they landed on the soundtrack of the video game Fahrenheit, also released as Indigo Prophecy. American buyers got a slightly cleaner record: the Roadrunner release carried edited versions of "No Surprise" and "Me & My Girl", while the Canadian original ran uncut. Critics were split.
