I hadn't heard of this band, and I was nervous we were going to have a poor imitation of the Beastie Boys on our hands. Lo and behold, this was actually really enjoyable.
These were pretty catchy songs. They clearly have a heavy blues influence, and a healthy dose of folk as well. They managed to create their own sound, without sounding like copies of anybody else.
I guess these guys are from Philadelphia. Thanks for representing the Keystone State in a way that doesn't bring shame on my people. We already have to atone for Bill Cosby and James Buchanan (when I was in school we learned that he was the worst ever president of the U.S., a factoid that hasn't particularly aged well).
RATING: 4/5
