Oh my goodness! How did this gem of an album go unnoticed by us for so long?! I guess one good thing can be said of it - Someone buying ads in our magazine can't buy a review (this CD sat on the shelf for a good six months after the ad ran!). Anyway, I think one of us here passed this one over because the lyrics were more about doubts and girls than faith and girls. There's even the verb "damn" used as a pronoun. The aural soundscape painted here is dirty in places and beautiful in others. Seattle would be proud, but so would Memphis or Atlanta. Many of you may have heard the loud 'n' boisterous grunge tune "Dirty Old Blind Man" on the Hard Music Sampler CD that accompanied the Nov/Dec issue. I recommend the full-length disc.
