Point Break 2 turns a late-night ordeal into expansive rock on “Haunted Car”

Point Break 2's "Haunted Car" began with a late-night summer visit to the emergency room after a bicycle accident in New York City. The hazy feeling of being ferried between locations in rideshare cabs sparked a song that was intended as a calm reprieve, a lullaby of sorts, about discovering optimism, humor, and grace in the face of ambiguity. "Haunted Car” takes an unsettling experience and turns it into a broader musical commentary on finding levity when things get tough.
