Album Review

Reviewed 2012-05-10
Based out of New Orleans, Osborne offers up some rockin’ tunes with big drums, crunchy guitar, some mellower numbers which tend to be on the (slightly) poppy sound and a few jammy tunes. Introspective songs of addiction, relationships - all those good r’n’r themes. Drums, bass, nice guitar (esp. on #11). RIYL Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, big rock, easy-going tunes. No FCC’s.

*My Favorites*: 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10.

1. (4:19) Mid. Loud pounding drums, big guitar, big vocals.
2. *(7:29) Mid. Fades in, mellow jam, then vocals. Sweet and ominous.
3. *(4:10) Mid. Cool and mellow, a bit poppy. Nice.
4. (4:55) Mid. Big plodding drums, crunchy guitar. Pop.
5. (4:59) Mid. Rockin’, crunchy guitar, processed vocal.
6. *(11:16) Slow / Mid. Title track. Mellow with quieter vocal delivery, backing vocals, easy beat. Gets jammy with wah-wah guitar.
7. *(4:04) Mid. Easy-going acoustic tune with harmonica, sticks, guitar.
8. *(5:47) Mid. Nice guitar, percussion, story-song. Great stuff.
9. (4:41) Slow / Mid. Harmonica, guitar, plodding beat. Fake end, then a ringing bell.
10. *(3:56) Mid. String piece with backing vocals. Heavenly.
