Customer Reviews
Amazing music in a time with not not that great music.
Bought this album here from Amazon, and recieved it this afternoon. At first I didn't really get into it, it was good. But nothing that remarkable. Then I listened to it again. =O!
This really is some great stuff. Somewhat melancholic, it's sounds a bit like the mood of Neil Young's On The Beach, with a more dylanesque feel to it, and with lyrics that makes me think a lot of The Band. This is good, really great. It's epic. Most of the people used to the more commericial, polished stuff of today might think it sounds a bit strange. But this is raw, imperfect (like the thunder hitting the studio during the recording of Hey Hey Revolver), and paradoxally amazing.
So everyone that liked, for example (as I said above) Neil Young's more sad period (this is though not as electric as most of his songs, but think Ambulance Blues)... and, actually the whole americana/folk period a là The Band will NOT be disappointed.
One of the best albums I've heard this year.
(please note that I'm a teenager from Sweden writing this, so my english might be a bit... not that good. and I probably could write this better in just some years, but, I'm quite sure of my opinion)
Great Album
This is a great debut album, despite the David Grayish singing on the first song. The influences of Neil Young and Uncle Tupelo are very evident. T for Texas is a great foot stomping country rock song. I like the inclusion of the live song at the end as a teaser to how energetic these guys would be live.
Front Porch Blues
If you have a spare bottle of brandy, and the moon is on the rise, take your portable CD player onto the porch, slump in your favourite rockin' chair, tip your hat over your eyes and sing along with these wonderful, sad laments of love, life and death. Handsome Family for the Basement Tapes generation. I am playing it again and again, the Ballad of Lou the Welterweight doing more for the doggy position than any song I've ever heard.
