Since I’m not as up on my Wreckless Eric discography I really can only use this simile:

If Nick Lowe decided to hang out with a bunch of friends in a garage and record, live, into a four track, a bunch of song he had just whipped up, it would probably sound like this.

Which is to say, it’s chock full of great lo-fi garage tunes.

This album sounds muddy but it’s supposed to. It’s designed, I think, to sound like a band recorded live and immediate. It also harkens back to the mono era of early rock and roll. Quite a statement given the era of overproduction.
