 Rating:  - Blew me awaySometimes those strange "other people who bought the Handsome Family, also bought this" links really hit paydirt. It's great coming to a whole new musical genre from nowhere, and there's no knowing history to contend with, and all you have to do is judge the music by the number of times your jaw drops open when you listen to it for the first time. my jaw dropped loads of times. Cocaine Habit. Loved the dodgy intro. My Good Girl. Yep, It's Arlene, but it still takes you by surprise when you realise. New Virginia Creeper. Surely that's Lee, at work, at work. Let It Alone. Sod those PC attitudes. God's Got It. Whoo! These Alabama boys sure know irony. Don't Ride That Horse - I've played it more than any other track. Utterly haunting. Bobcat Tracks. ...

You've got to love this band! Rating:  - Biggest disappointment of the yearI bought this album having heard "My Good Gal" on The Word magazines's cover cd. This is probably my favourite track of the year, and I cannot stop playing it. Unfortunately, the rest of the cd is badly written and/or self-indulgently performed, but, as the previous review says,they are mercifully short. I am amazed that Welch and Rawlings would lend their names to this garbage. Perhaps if Ketch Secor had written all the tracks, rather than the only good one, it might have been better. An American folk singer recently told me that he was advised, when recording in Nashville, that you only need two good tracks on a cd, the ones that will get the airplay. The rest you can fill up with whatever else you do. This has only got one good track. ... Read More: Rating: - A good second album.Okay,let's get this out of the way straight from the gate - OCMS' second album is pretty familiar to anyone who owns or has listened to their first.So familiar,in fact,that Cocaine Habit actually has a false start when Ketch Secor sings the first line to Tell It To Me from their first album,both songs being strikingly similar,before the band break into laughter at his mistake.Likewise,a couple of other songs bear more than a passing similarity to their previous work,but this really doesn't matter that much.If it did thousands of big name stars would have been pilloried long before now.What matters is whether they are good songs or not and in the case of this album,they are. In truth,there's nothing with quite the energy or verve of Hard ... Read More: Rating: - More of the same...But not necessarily a bad thing, as 2004's O.C.M.S. was easily the best bluegrass crossover since The Mountain by Steve Earle & Del McCoury. The mix is much as before, treading a fine line between esoteric, traditional & mainstream, with many of the songs following the templates laid down by the debut, but familarity hasn't yet started to breed contempt. Though maybe there's no need to go looking for a third perky little number with Cocaine in the title for the next record,lads. It's a whole lot grittier than Alison Krauss or Nickel Creek & so should appeal to the listeners who have perhaps been alienated by the more tasteful/MOR examples of country/bluegrass. Relieved to see the continuing involvement ... Read More: |
