Is this “Alt-Country”? Someone else, smarter than me, more knowledgable of the genre, could edify me here.
No matter, this is a nice companion piece to Danny & Dusty (this is the Danny portion). Like the last record, the Replacements run hard in the veins of these guys. A sub-genre is brewing and I put that squarely on the shoulders of Violent Femmes.
If this is where GoR is headed, I’m along for that ride. I am rapidly becoming an alt-country 1985 fan and this just keeps that train rolling.
