Hot Snakes – Audit in Progress

Audit in Progress is the third studio album by the San Diego, California, rock band Hot Snakes, released in 2004 by Swami Records. It was recorded in a similar manner to the band’s previous two albums, with guitarist John Reis taking time off from his main band Rocket From the Crypt. In comparison to the band’s previous albums, Audit in Progress is more aggressive and primal. Audit in Progress would be Hot Snakes’ final studio album until 2018’s Jericho Sirens, as the members decided to disband following a tour of Australia in Spring 2005 (though Thunder Down Under, a live-in-the-studio album recorded during the tour, was released posthumously in 2006).
