Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - "...retains all the energy and lyrical brilliance of their earlier work, only with a jagged more guitar-led sound. The songs here are witty...and even creepy....A band on form in a state of rich, droll unpleasant maturity.", "...their most consistent set of new material since 1989's 3....a big blister of folkcore brilliance that even the sun couldn't eclipse.", 3 out of 5 - "...Remarkably calm, rife with the same breezy, notably non-violent wise-ass humor. Gordon Gano fulfills his duties as jaded, malaise-ridden singer man...while his acoustic strums mesh easily with the skilled bob and bounce of the rhythm section...", "...Aside from a few cool countrified numbers this kicks along with the scratchy, punkish intent of old, Gordon Gano's vocal a blend of Jonathan Richman and a stifled sheep....a little complexity seems to be gurgling back."
