In A Car is the Meat Puppets' first recording and was originally issued as a 5 track 7" single.
The EP is now available as a bonus on the Rykodisc reissue of the band's first LP, Meat Puppets.
The EP contains 5 songs in as many minutes and is the band's most hardcore release. On first listen, many of the lyrics sound like unintelligible screaming and (with the exception of the instrumental "Out In The Gardener") the songs are thrashed through at breakneck speed. The group would begin to move away from this sound on their first album "Meat Puppets", and completely abandon this on all subsequent releases. An interesting note is that the EP predates the "grindcore" style of Cannibal Corpse and Discordance Axis and "screamo" emo style punk by over a decade.
