SUMMARY:BASTARDANE
DESCRIPTION:Castor Hetfield\, son of Metallica frontman James Hetfield\, has just released Is This Rage\, the first album from his sludgy/stoner rock power trio Bastardane. \nThe lineup consists of Jake Dallas (bass\, vocals)\, Ethan Sirotzki (guitar) and 21-year-old Castor Hetfield (drums\, backing vocals). As Bastardane\, they released “Wealthy Fantasy\,” their first single\, in 2020\, followed by “Above All” and “Let the Wasted Die\,” both of which came out last year and are featured on the debut record. \nMuch like the music being made by Lars Ulrich‘s sons Myles and Layne in Taipei Houston and\, separately\, Rob Trujillo‘s son Tye in Otto (and previously Suspect208 and Blu Weekend)\, Bastardane’s sound doesn’t encroach the thrash style famously laid down by Metallica\, which helps to give each musician their own identity. \nThe 10-track effort can be heard in full on Bandcamp and other streaming services and the artwork and track listing can be viewed further down the page. For a teaser of Is This Rage?\, check out the opening track “Above All” below. \nFollow Bastardane on Instagram \n

SUMMARY:MELVINS
DESCRIPTION: \nThe Melvins weren’t the first band to acknowledge the heavy metal influences that most left-of-center bands had been trying to shake off since punk rock broke in 1977 (that honor would go to Black Flag on their polarizing 1984 album My War). But no other band to emerge from the punk/alternative underground would mine Black Sabbath‘s slow\, monolithic roar with greater effect than the Melvins\, and they would prove to be wildly influential despite barely breaking out of cult status. The drop-D tunings and brontosaurus stomp of grunge icons such as Tad\, Mudhoney\, and Soundgarden would be unthinkable without the trails the Melvins blazed\, and Kurt Cobain often sang their praises\, helping them land their first major-label recording deal in 1993. They became a bridge between the edges of the punk and metal communities\, who would find greater common ground from the ’90s onward. (Their debut EP\, 1986’s 6 Songs\, found them wavering between speedier punk-oriented numbers and full-on heaviness\, but by 1991’s Bullhead\, the Melvins’ trademark gargantuan sound was firmly in place.) And while the Melvins were as recognizable as any band of their day\, they also proved to be more creatively flexible than nearly all their peers\, willing to experiment with different styles (the massive suite on 1992’s Melvins [aka Lysol]\, the ambitious studio experimentation of 1996’s Stag\, the noisy soundscapes in 2017’s A Walk with Love and Death) and a variety of musical configurations (bringing in multiple guest vocalists on 2000’s The Crybaby\, using two drummers on 2006’s A Senile Animal\, working with a rotating team of bassists on 2016’s Basses Loaded\, recording with two bassists at once on 2018’s Pinkus Abortion Technician\, and recording an epic-scale acoustic set for 2021’s Five Legged Dog)\, all of which helped the band remain productive and prolific more than three decades after they launched. \nThe band formed in Aberdeen\, Washington\, the same town that produced Nirvana‘s Cobain and Krist Novoselic. For Nirvana and many other Seattle-area bands\, the Melvins’ sludge was inspirational; the younger bands took the Sabbath-styled heaviness of the Melvins and added an equally important pop song structure\, which the group tended to lack. While all of their disciples became famous after Nirvana broke big in 1991 (including Mudhoney\, which featured former Melvins bassist Matt Lukin)\, the Melvins only expanded their cult slightly. They did earn a major-label contract with Atlantic\, but after releasing three records for the label\, they were dropped in late 1996 and the group returned to indie status\, landing with Amphetamine Reptile for 1998’s Alive at the F*cker Club. The late ’90s and early 2000s saw a flurry of releases by the band: The Maggot\, The Bootlicker\, The Crybaby\, Electroretard\, The Colossus of Destiny\, Hostile Ambient Takeover\, Pigs of the Roman Empire\, and Houdini Live 2005: A Live History of Gluttony and Lust\, all of which (except for the fourth one) were issued on Mike Patton‘s Ipecac label. \nIn addition to their Melvins activities\, singer/guitarist Buzz Osborne joined Patton (and former Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo and Mr. Bungle bassist Trevor Dunn) for the experimental outfit Fantômas\, resulting in a number of releases (1999’s self-titled debut\, 2001’s The Director’s Cut\, 2002’s Millennium Monsterwork by “the Fantômas Melvins Big Band” (recorded live in San Francisco on New Year’s Eve 2000 but not released until two years later)\, 2004’s Delirium Cordia\, and 2005’s Suspended Animation)\, while the Melvins’ latest bassist\, Kevin Rutmanis\, joined Patton in another side project\, Tomahawk. In 2006\, Big Businessbassist Jared Warren and drummer Coady Willis joined the Melvins\, appearing on that year’s Senile Animal album. The follow-ups\, 2008’s Nude with Boots\, 2010’s The Bride Screamed Murder\, and a live album titled Sugar Daddy Live\, were recorded with the same lineup and released by Ipecac. \nThe band returned in 2012 with a stripped-down lineup\, dubbed Melvins Lite\, for Freak Puke\, which found Croverand Osborne recording without the boys from Big Businessand instead adding standup bassist Dunn to their roster to round out the band’s already formidable bottom-end sound. Mixing things up even further\, the band invited a host of guests\, including the likes of Jello Biafra and J.G. Thirlwell\, for Everybody Loves Sausages\, an album of covers that arrived in 2013. Another new album\, Tres Cabrones\, released in November of that same year\, saw them reunited with original drummer Mike Dillard — who had previously appeared only on their early demo tapes — while usual drummer Dale Crover took over on bass duties. Another odd combination occurred in 2014\, as Crover and Osborne joined the Butthole Surfers‘ Jeff “J.D.” Pinkus and Paul Leary on the eclectic Hold It In. \nTwo unusual releases from the Melvins arrived in 2016. An album the group began recording in 1999 with Mike Kunka of Godheadsilo was finally completed and released as Three Men and a Baby\, credited to Mike & the Melvins. And in the middle of 2016 they issued Basses Loaded\, where the group recruited a handful of favorite bass players to collaborate on songs. The guest artists included Krist Novoselic of Nirvana\, Steve McDonald of Redd Kross and OFF!\, J.D. Pinkus\, Trevor Dunn\, and Jared Warren. One of the few things the Melvins hadn’t done was release a double album\, but they were finally able to cross that off their list in 2017 with A Walk with Love and Death. The 23-track release included material written and recorded as the score to a film by Jesse Nieminen. In 2018\, the Melvins broke ground with a lineup featuring two bassists on the album Pinkus Abortion Technician. The sessions found J.D. Pinkus (returning from his previous appearances on Hold It In and Basses Loaded) handling the bottom end along with Steve McDonald (also heard on Basses Loaded)\, while King Buzzo and Dale Crover took their usual places on guitar and drums. The band reunited several times with first drummer Dillard\, releasing several EP-length or stand-alone recordings under the sub-moniker Melvins 1983. In 2021\, this formation of the band released a full-length titled Working with God. With touring off the table during the COVID-19 pandemic\, the hard-working Melvins played a series of live streamed concerts under the banner Melvins TV\, and set to work on an unusual project. Five Legged Dog\, released in October 2021 and featuring the Osborne/ Crover/McDonald lineup\, was the group’s first all-acoustic album\, running nearly two-and-a-half hours\, and featuring new interpretations of songs spanning their recording career\, as well as covers of songs that influenced them. \n \n

SUMMARY:ENUFF Z' NUFF / PRETTY BOY FLOYD
DESCRIPTION:Enuff Z’nuff was formed in 1984 in Blue Island\, IL. Its very first album release\, Fingers On It\, gave the band initial recognition when the track was featured in the 1986 cult move\, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. The album spawned two singles that changed the course of the band’s history\, “New Thing” and “Fly High Michelle.” Both songs played constantly on the radio and gained heavy rotation on MTV\, spending over 60 weeks in the top 10. \nWith the release of their 1991 rock album\, Strength\, Enuff Z’nuff became regulars on shows like David Letterman and Howard Stern and was featured in Rolling Stone’s hot issue as ‘the next big thing.’ \nStill a major force after 20+ albums\, Enuff Z’nuff has earned a loyal legion of fans and the respect and acclaim of its peers and contemporaries. \nPretty Boy Floyd is a glam metal band from Hollywood\, CA\, formed in 1987. They are most famous for their 1989 debut album Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz and its two singles\, “Rock and Roll (is Gonna Set the Night on Fire)” and “I Wanna Be With You.” The band reformed in 1995 and has since released several new albums\, including Public Enemies\, which gained enough public love to send Pretty Boy Floyd performing worldwide in 2018. \nThe Midnight Devils are a national touring\, high-energy glam slam boogie woogie rock ‘n’ roll band out of Omaha\, NE and Chicago\, IL\, featuring Sam Spade on bass and vocals\, Sniper on guitar\, and the indestructible Jimmy Mess on the drums. Throwing all caution to the wind\, this power-trio is a bad ass-lipstick smeared party rock ‘n’ roll band that takes glam to the next level. \nHaving done hundreds of shows from coast to coast in support of their debut album\, Something Bigger\, The Midnight Devils’ mix of rock ‘n’ roll\, sexuality\, and depravity are the perfect combination. The Midnight Devils have also toured as the direct support act for UK rock legends The Quireboys in early 2020 and Yngwie Malmsteen\, Enuff Z’nuff\, The Bullteboys\, and Pretty Boy Floyd in 2021. Signing with Pavement Entertainment to release their sophomore album produced by Chip Znuff\, The Midnight Devils are the rock ‘n’ roll force that can’t be stopped. \n

SUMMARY:NORMAN WESTBERG (SWANS) solo
DESCRIPTION:Best known for his work with the seminal outfit\, SWANS\, Westberg’s\noutput beyond that group is sprawling and restless. His name recurs\nand ripples through many interconnected micro-histories surrounding\nNew York City’s music and art scenes. From appearances in film works\nassociated with the Cinema Of Transgression\, through to his\nparticipation in bands such as The Heroin Sheiks and Five Dollar Priest\,\nWestberg’s name is woven deeply in to the fabric of NY\, over the past\nthree decades.\nA Note from Lawrence English…\n“Norman Westberg’s guitar playing with SWANS has influenced a\ngeneration of musicians across genres. I can personally attest to how\nhis particular approaches to that instrument\, in creating both harmony\nand brute force\, have challenged and ultimately influenced my own\nsonic preoccupations.\nWhat Norman has created with his solo works is an echoing universe\nof deep texture and harmonic intensity. His solo compositions\ngenerate an affecting quality that drives the listener towards reductive\ntranscendence.\nHis guitar\, as a singular source\, becomes transformed through a web\nof outboard processes. He transforms vibrating strings completely\,\ntaking a singular gesture and reshapes it through webs of delay\,\nreverb and other treatments. To me\, these works echo many of the\nconcerns of American minimalism and sprawl outward towards the\nwork of bands such as Stars Of The Lid. Norman has created a very\ndense and powerful statement of intent with [his] recordings and I\ncouldn’t be more pleased to have some small part in helping to share\nthem” \n \n

SUMMARY:GENITORTURERS
DESCRIPTION: \nOriginating in Orlando Florida\, Gen gave birth to the concept of Genitorturers while in college studying pre-med. \nThe Genitorturers cut their teeth\, honing their music and live show initially in the early 90’s Florida “Hardcore” music scene. What emerged would be a band that would go beyond shaking up the house that “Mickey” built and extend to paving the way and breaking ground for performance based music artists thereafter worldwide. \nIn 1993 the band caught the ear of Miles Copeland owner of IRS records\, who had discovered and created careers for acts like REM\, GoGo’s\, The Bangles\, Concrete Blond and STING. He was drawn to the band whose live shows were becoming infamous regionally and quickly sent his assistant Nick Turner ( former drummer for Lords of the New Church) to Florida to check out the band. Upon witnessing the power of the bands live show which included a music style which crossed over from hardcore punk into metal with industrial electronic elements\, the band was offered a record contract and set out to record “120 Days of Genitorture”. \nSince their 1993 IRS Records debut release of “120 Days of Genitorture”\, the band has been covered by many high profile media outlets. Television coverage has included features on VHI\, Fox News\, Hard Copy\, HBO’s Real Sex and Playboy TV’s “SEXCETERA”. \nWith over 5\,000 pages of articles\, recent printmedia coverage has included a feature in Gene Simmons “Tongue” magazine and 12 pages in Hustler magazine.. the ONLY multi-page spread EVER with a rock band. \nIn addition\, extensive touring in the U.S.\, Europe and JAPAN have garnered them a devoted fan base worldwide\, a growing number of whom travel to repeat shows calling themselves “GENHEADS” or fight tooth and nail when the band auctions off their annual “EVENING OF TORTURE” on EBAY. Lead singer Gen has even been the subject of a British release feature film “Preaching to the Perverted” a fictional account exploring her life and exploits. \nToday GENITORTURERS have succeeded in making believers of even the stodgiest music critics who prior to witnessing them live had all but written them off as some kind of gimmick….“Yes\, they have their schtick……but can they play? You betcha!. Their hard driving yet brutally sexy rock and roll sucks you in.. and once you are there you are hooked! \nThe bands release “Flesh is the Law “ includes the track “Lecher Bitch” which was released worldwide on the videogame & soundtrack release “Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines” \nEarlier releases have included the cd ” Machine Love” which includes an incredible remake of the Divinyl’s hit “Touch Myself” produced by Dave Ogilvie(Skinny Puppy\, NIN) and Rob Zombie producer Scott Humphrey . \n  \n

SUMMARY:THROUGH THE ROOTS
DESCRIPTION:Few things ever grow tall without roots. For the members of Through The Roots\, it took a decade of inspired songwriting and heavy touring to develop the band’s unique sound: a modern blend of roots reggae\, hip-hop\, rock\, and electronic pop. It’s a sound that nods to the band’s diverse influences while also reaching far beyond them\, and it began humbly enough\, with the guys hosting their own backyard shows in college towns across Southern California. Word spread. Crowds grew. Through The Roots bought a renovated school bus and hit the road hard\, graduating from college frat parties to larger clubs\, building their audience\, show by energetic show. Throughout it all\, the band kept writing and exploring new sounds\, working their way towards a truly unique sound that blended tradition with technology. \n \n

SUMMARY:JD PINKUS (Butthole Surfers/Honky/Melvins/Helios Creed)
DESCRIPTION: \nJD Pinkus is an American bassist best known for his work with American punk band Butthole Surfers from1985 to 1994 and since the 2009 reunion. \nIn 1990\, he and Butthole Surfers’ lead vocalist Gibby Haynes released Digital Dump\, the only album from their psychedelic house music side project The Jackofficers. \nUpon leaving Butthole Surfers\, Pinkus worked full-time with the Austin trio Daddy Longhead\, which he had assembled during his waning months in the band\, and which included longtime Atlanta associate Jimbo Young on guitar and Rey Washam on drums. Daddy Longhead retired after 10 years\, leaving Pinkus free to explore other projects including Skinny Leonard and Areola 51. Pinkus played with Helios Creed on his albums NUGG: \nThe Transport [1996] and Activated Condition [1998]\, and has also collaborated with Bad Livers frontman Danny Barnes several times in a live setting. \nJD Pinkus then co-founded the band Honky who went on to record five albums and are still currently active. \nPinkus also performs with Pure Luck\,who released a self-titled release in 2017 on Heavy Feather Records. He leaves his bass to play Banjo and Guitar in this project. On their 30th anniversary tour in 2013\, Pinkus joined the Melvins in place of Jared Warren (on paternity leave) as well as performing with the opening Honky. He subsequently joined the Melvins full-time\, touring with them in 2014 in support of the album Hold It In\, which also featured Butthole Surfers founder Paul Leary\, and again \nin 2015. He also plays on the song Captain Come Down which was first released in 2015 on Chaos as Usual\, a split release with Le Butcherettes\, and later included on the 2016 album Basses Loaded. \nIn 2018\, JD Pinkus released a solo album\, Keep on the Grass on cassette tape on Danny Barnes Minner Bucket Records and later Vinyl and Compact Disc through Heavy Feather Records. It was recorded entirely on banjo and features a rendition of the song Bride of Crankenstein from the Melvins album Hold It In. \nThe Keepon the Grass album release show was with Sleep in San Pedro on September 15th 2018. \n On February 12\, 2018\, the Melvins announced that Pinkus would be joining them\, alongside current bassist Steven McDonald (Redd Kross)\, on their next album and subsequent tour. Released on April 20\, 2018\, the aptly titled Pinkus Abortion Technician features both bass players and four songs written or co-written by Pinkus. In May of 2021 JD Pinkus and Daddy Longhead released another album titled ‘Twinkle” which was originally recorded but not distributed in 1998. \nJD Pinkus is now releasing his second solo “space grass” banjo album titled “Fungus Shui.” The album was written\, recorded\, and mixed by Pinkus himself at Plastic Cannon Studio in Asheville\, North Carolina. The album was mastered by Kramer. \nFungus Shui LP’s are being released on Shimmy Disc and CD’s available through Heavy Feather Records on August 20th 2021. \n \n

SUMMARY:ANTISEEN
DESCRIPTION: \nLong before it was fashionable\, somewhere in the red clay rolling hills of rural North Carolina where time stands still and mass media culture merely flys over\, a young Jeff Clayton was stewing up a mash of crazed ideas inspired by late night horror flicks\, Saturday morning wrestling and the scratchy old records of Alice Cooper and Black Oak Arkansas. It was a potent and hazardous mix that\, when given the blasting cap of punk rock\, ignited one of the most infamous and iconic bands in rock & roll; ANTiSEEN.  \nNow\, over thirty years later\, Clayton still leads the charge – a bloodstained barnstorm of southern fried punk rock fury. Times and taste may change\, but ANTiSEEN does not; diesle-fume piss and vinegar – and damn all the rest. What was once topical has long since become dated… But not ANTiSEEN. \nThe toxic DNA bleeds thru the muddy roots. The genre defying influence and heritage no longer can be denied. One needs not look very far to recognize it.\nThe spirit is eternal\, the reality exceeds the myth… \nThe legend continues… \n

SUMMARY:MAC SABBATH
DESCRIPTION:MAC SABBATH \n \nMac Sabbath is an American parody heavy metal tribute band formed in Los Angeles\, California\, in 2014. The self-appointed founders of “Drive Thru Metal”\, the band is primarily a parody of English heavy metal group Black Sabbath\, utilizing lyricism and imagery centered on fast food. \nSPEEDEALER: \n \nSpeedealer is an American punk band hailing from Texas. \nSpeedealer first formed in 1992 in Lubbock\, TX as REO SPEEDEALER\, but had to change their name to SPEEDEALER after a cease and desist letter from the band REO SPEEDWAGON.  The original line-up consisted of Jeff Hirshberg on vocals\, Chris Brown on drums\, Rodney Skelton on bass\, and James Follis on guitar. After a brief hiatus\, the band re-formed in Dallas\, TX. \nSince that time there have been many incarnations of the band. The ex-members are numerous and to explain each departure would take entirely too long\, (though many are interesting stories\, indeed)\, but here is the slate: Rodney Skelton\, Mike Noyes\, Toby Sheets\, Todd Mcglaughlin\, Mark Baker\, Dave Woodard\, James Follis\, and Chris Brown. In addition\, Clint Phillips and Casey Orr have filled in for different tours. Since October of ’97 Speedealer’s line-up consists of Harden Harrison – drums\, Eric Schmidt – guitar\, and Jeff Hirshberg – vocals/guitar… and a bassist. \nSpeedealer has consistently toured for 275 – 300 shows per year since 1996\, playing all lower 48 states\, Canada\, Europe\, Russia\, and Japan. The list of groups played/toured with is long\, including the likes of Motorhead\, Pantera\, Reverend Horton Heat\, Corrosion of Conformity\, The Misfits\, FEAR\, Murphy’s Law\, Joey Ramone\, Fu Manchu\, Neurosis\, Voivod\, Zeke\, Superjoint Ritual\, Morbid Angel\, GWAR\, The Supersuckers\, and Nashville Pussy. \nThe best description of Speedealer’s music is that of a blender filled with blood and steel\, and set on puree. \n

SUMMARY:JOSHUA RAY WALKER
DESCRIPTION: \nOn his new album See You Next Time\, Texas-bred singer/songwriter Joshua Ray Walker shares an imagined yet\ntruthful portrait of a brokedown honky-tonk and themisfits who call it home: barflies and wannabe cowboys\,\nbleary-eyed dreamers and hopelessly lost souls. His third full-length in three years\, the album marks the final\ninstallment in a trilogy that originated with Walker’s globally acclaimed 2019 debut Wish You Were Here and its\nequally lauded follow-up Glad You Made It (the #5 entry on Rolling Stone’s Best Country and Americana\nAlbums of 2020 list).\n“The whole idea with the trilogy was to use the honky-tonk as a setting where all these different characters\ncould interact with each other\,” says Walker\, who drew immense inspiration from the local dive bars he first\nstarted sneaking into and gigging at as a teenager growing up in East Dallas. “In my mind\, this album’s taking\nplace on the night before the bar closes forever—the songs are just me taking snapshots of that world\, and all\nthe moments that happen in it.”\nLike its predecessors\, See You Next Time came to life at Audio Dallas Recording Studio with producer John\nPedigo and a first-rate lineup of musicians\, including the likes of pedal-steel player Adam “Ditch” Kurtz and\nrhythm guitarist Nathan Mongol Wells of Ottoman Turks(the country-punk outfit for which Walker sidelines\nas lead guitarist). The album’s immaculately crafted but timelessly vital sound provides a prime backdrop for\nWalker’s storytelling\, an element that endlessly blurs the lines between fable-like fiction and personal\nrevelation. “I learned a long time ago that writing from a character’s perspective lets me examine things about\nmyself without ever feeling too self-conscious aboutit\,” he points out. Closely informed by the tremendous\nloss he’s suffered in recent years\, See You Next Time emerges as the most powerful work to date from an\nextraordinarily gifted songwriter\, imbued with equal parts weary pragmatism and the kind of unabashedly\nromantic spirit that defies all cynicism.\nOn the album-opening “Dallas Lights\,” Walker presents a potent introduction to the vast and\nsometimes-harrowing emotional terrain of See You Next Time. “I used to hang out in Lower Greenville\, which\nis a neighborhood in Dallas with a lot of homelesspeople\,” he says of the song’s origins. “One of theguys\nthere knew someone who’d passed away and there was nobody to claim the body: no wife\, no family\, no\nkinfolk at all. I was really struck by how terrible that was\, and over the years it became a song about\nhometown pride\, and wanting to die where you lived.” Anchored by the heartrending fiddle work of Heather\nStalling\, “Dallas Lights” ultimately lends a bit of glory to that tragedy\, its chorus lyrics unfolding as their own\nresolute prayer (“Lord\, don’t bury me deep/Under the sycamore tree/Burn Me/Spread Me/Where the city\ncan be seen”).\nIn its nuanced exploration of so many disparate moods—grief and celebration\, sorrow and surrender—See\nYou Next Time takes an entirely unexpected turn on its lead single “Sexy After Dark.” Fueled by a fiery horn\nsection\, the wildly catchy track hits a brilliant balance of bravado\, soul-stirring confession\, andbrutally\nself-aware humor. “There’s a deep history of sexy-crooner country songs played by dudes who were pretty\nunsexy by all accounts but still had so much swagger\,” says Walker. “‘Sexy After Dark’ was my attempt at\nwriting a song like that\, a fun song I’d want to crank up and party to. It all came back to wanting to really\npush the boundaries of what I could do on this album.”\nIn a stunning tonal shift\, See You Next Time then delivers its most devastating moment\, the intensely intimate\n“Flash Paper.” “My dad had a four-year battle with lung cancer and passed away in November\, and before he\ndied he gave me a cigar box full of notes and cards and lots of random little things\, like a ribbon froma\nreading competition from when he was in elementary school\,” says Walker. “He also put in a flash drive with\na video he’d recorded\, which he told me not to watch until Christmas. My dad was from East Texas and kind\nof a good-old-boy type\, and the video was really vulnerable for him. Some of it was similar to things he’d said\nover the years\, as he dealt with his illness and the two of us grew closer\, but that song’s mostly aboutme\nwishing I’d heard more of those things while he wasstill here.” \nWith its untethered textures and beautifully sprawling guitar tones\, “Flash Paper” bears a mesmerizing quality\nthat magnifies its raw emotion. “That was definitely the hardest one for me to write on the album—I broke\ndown multiple times in the process\,” says Walker\, whose voice slips into an achingly tender howl at the\nchorus. The final track recorded for See You Next Time\, it’s also one of several songs that Walker pennedin the\ndead of night\, while his home was undergoing massive reconstruction following the rupture of a hot-water\npipe. “Half my house was torn apart\, and I was living at an extended-stay hotel\, but I couldn’t get any writing\ndone there\,” he says. “I didn’t want to move back the recording sessions\, so I ended up going back to my\nhouse late at night and staying up for hours to finish some songs. I remember thinking at the time that it was\npretty depressing—writing at 4 a.m. in this torn-apart house with no furniture and no heat in the middle of\nwinter—but looking back\, I think it’s good that I was forced to be totally alone and just think.”\nAnother profoundly heavy-hearted track\, “Gas Station Roses” reveals the poetic sensibilities within Walker’s\nsongwriting. “There’s a double meaning to that song—it’s partly referring to the roses you’d find in a gas\nstation around Valentine’s\, but it’s also about how gas stations get away with selling crack pipes by hiding\nthem in those glass tubes with the origami flowers\,” he explains. Layered with bright piano melodies and\nPedigo’s cascading banjo rolls\, “Gas Station Roses” offers a clear-eyed meditation on the hardship of\naddiction (“We’re like gas station roses/You can wrap us however you’d like/If you prop us up in pretty\nposes/We’ll really catch the light”). “I grew up around a lot of kids who had parents with substance-abuse\nissues\, and in high school a lot of my friends gothooked on heroin\,” says Walker. “This song in particular is\nabout crack\, but the overall story is addiction leading to a loss of innocence.”\nA working musician since the age of 13\, Walker firstbegan honing his lyrical talents after the death of his\nbeloved grandfather. “My granddad’s the one who got me into music\, and I wrote a song called ‘Fondly’ in\nthe parking lot of the hospital he was in\,” recallsWalker\, who was 19 at the time. “Back then I was mostly\nplaying rock and punk and blues and metal\, but I quickly realized that the songs I was writing were country\nsongs.” Raised on bluegrass\, he lists Texas legends like Guy Clark and Billy Joe Shaver among his essential\ninspirations\, but also notes the undeniable influence of country superstars likeAlan Jackson and George Strait\n(“All those ’90s country songs were so hook-driven\, they really bored into my brain\,” he says). With the arrival\nof Wish You Were Here (an album that spent 12 consecutive weeks on the Americana radio albums chart)\,\nWalker won lavish praise from outlets like NPR Music and began opening for such artists as Colter Wall and\nCharley Crockett\, in addition to headlining tours in the U.S. and Europe. Hailed by No Depression as “an\nalbum that outshines expectations for what country music can\, and should\, sound like\,” Glad You Made It\nearned the admiration of leading critics like AnnPowers (“a new voice who really impressed me”)\, with its\nsingles featured on such coveted playlists as Spotify’s Indigo and Tidal’s Best of Country 2020. Over the years\,\nWalker has continually captivated crowds with his magnetic live show\, a feat that finds him joined by\nmusicians like bassist Billy Bones and drummer Trey Pendergrass (both of whom played onSee You Next\nTime). “I’m really proud of the band on this record\, and I’m also proud that I didn’t just go out and get hired\nguns from Nashville or Austin\,” Walker says. “They’re guys I’ve played with for 10 or 15 years\, and at this\npoint we’re all like family.”\nTrue to that communal spirit\, See You Next Time closes out on its sing-along-ready title track: a fitting end to\nWalker’s trilogy and its tribute to the fleeting\, yet possibly life-changing\, connection to be found at your\nnearest honky-tonk. “There’s not a lot of pretensionat a honky-tonk\, and there’s much more interaction than\nin other bars—you see a lot less people on their phones\,” says Walker. “We’re there to talk to other humans\,\nput a song on the jukebox and dance with a stranger\, get to know your bartender and tell them all your\nproblems. I really wanted to capture that feeling on this record—I want everyone to feel like they know all\nthese characters\, and that they’re somehow better understood because these songs exist.” \n

SUMMARY:LEGENDARY SHACK SHAKERS
DESCRIPTION: \nTwenty-five years into their worldwide crusade\, Legendary Shack Shakers have become the leaders in the underground music scene’s “Southern Gothic” sound. Led by their charismatic front man\, Col. JD Wilkes\, the band continues to wow crowds with their explosive interpretations of swamp blues\, rock n’ roll and hillbilly music\, making fans\, critics\, and now\, an entire new generation into true believers. \nBetween intermittent hiatuses to work on other projects (including JD’s sideshow banner-style artwork for acts like The Squirrel Nut Zippers and Marty Stuart…plus his two published books The Vine That Ate the South and Barn Dances & Jamborees Across Kentucky)\, the band is constantly re-inventing and re-mobilizing\, much to the excitement of many a Shack Shakers fanatic. Despite Wilkes’ extracurricular projects\, the Shakers’ reputation for intense entertainment endures. \nOn stage\, JD has been compared to the likes of Iggy Pop\, David Byrne\, and Jerry Lee Lewis. The Nashville Scene named Wilkes “the best frontman in Nashville”\, while former Dead Kennedys frontman Jello Biafra has called JD “the last great Rock and Roll frontman.” Guitar virtuoso\, Gary Siperko (Pere Ubu\, Rocket from the Tombs\, Drivin’ and Cryin’) intones a variety of styles\, from delta blues to gypsy jazz\, while the rhythm section rounds out with drummer Preston Corn (The Dirt Daubers) and Fuller Condon (Two Man Gentlemen Band) thumping the upright bass. \nWith nine critically acclaimed studio albums (and songs that have been featured on television shows such as HBO’s True Blood\, CBS’s The Unit \, Swamp Loggers\, and movies like Julia Roberts’ Duplicity)\, the band shows no sign of stopping. Past tour mates and fans include Sturgill Simpson\, Reverend Horton Heat\, Rancid\, The Black Keys\, Slim Cessna’s Auto Club\, and Hank Williams III. Robert Plant is also a noted Legendary Shack Shakers fan\, and picked the band to open for him on his “Strange Sensation” tour of Europe. Plant named the band’s third album Believe as one of his favorite records\, and the list of esteemed admirers goes on to include horror novelist Stephen King. King listed “CB Song” as among his iPod’s Top Five in an Entertainment Weekly article. \nSuch a wealth of devoted\, cult-like fans has only added to the mystique that the Legendary Shack Shakers possess\, carrying them down the road toward new creative pursuits and intense new music and ideas. \n \n\n\n“It’s f***ing great!”\n– Robert Plant\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Dynamite group.”\n– Stephen King\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“They’re like the Yard Birds meet the Sex Pistols.”\n– Jeff Beck\n“(Swampblood is) one of the strangest and thoroughly drawn concept albums of recent times.\n -American Songwriter\n“(Wilkes writes) mind-blowing lyrics rife with Biblical references and ruminations of life\, death\, sin and redemption.”\n– Billboard\n\n\n\n“Col. J.D. Wilkes lets loose on the (harmonica) like an Old Western mob on a prisoner.  Come for a sh*t-kickin’ good time.”\n– Pitchfork\n“(Wilkes) is the closest thing there is to the Ambassador of Genuine Traditional Southern Culture.”\n– ALARM Magazine\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“I think JD’s one of those genius guys. I love the fact that he’s experimental. He’s a very creative cat.”\n– Billy Bob Thornton\n“AgriDustrial (is) a masterpiece of experimental music.”\n– Creative Loafing\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:SAMUEL HERB
DESCRIPTION: \nSamuel Herb is a singer/songwriter originally from Jacksonville\, FL. After placing second in American Songwriter Magazine’s Lyric Contest\, Herb decided to make the move to Nashville in 2016 where he quickly fell in love with Americana music. His debut FULL LENGTH album was successfully crowdfunded in the Spring of 2022 and is in the recording process right now. Later in 2022\, Samuel is planning to launch his first NFT as a preview to the new record! \nAfter wrestling with the idea of becoming an artist as well as a writer he released his debut single\, “Dirty.” which wound-up in the Top 10 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart. \n“Dirty.” has since been streamed nearly 50\,000 on all platforms in over 70 different countries around the world. Herb’s love of storytelling brings audiences into his mind\, while his in your face sound shows off his personality. His love of country music\, combined with the sounds of Motown and even Disney music are apparent when listening to his stories. \nIn October of 2018\, Herb released his second single\, “Someone Else’s Dream” which again debuted in the Top 10 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart and quickly grew to a crowd favorite for live shows. It was after writing that song with his producer\, Mark Caldwell\, that Herb quit his job to pursue music full time. In Spring of 2019\, Herb’s self-titled\, debut EP was released featuring 6-songs\, all of which are completely different in story and sound. The EP also made it to #10 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart when it debuted. \nSince making the move to artist in 2018\, Samuel has shared the stage with Rodney Atkins\, The 502s\, Gabe Lee\, Son Little\, Pokey LaFarge\, Amythyst Kiah\, Hush Kids\, Tyler Hilton\, Erin Rae\, Shawn James and so many more. In such a short time\, Herb has tallied up hundreds of shows on stages all across the U.S. \nIn 2020\, Samuel released a single titled “Just a Tree” which sparked his tree planting initiative to plant ONE tree in a US National Forest for every 1\,000 streams on any of his songs and ONE tree for every piece of merchandise sold from his store. Together\, he and his fans have planted over 750 trees. \n“Ever the creative and consummate storyteller\, Samuel can weave a striking story with ease\, and when combined with his love of diverse musical tastes\, creates an authentic and soulful experience for those of us who are lucky enough to take part in it.” – Turn Up The Amp Magazine \n

SUMMARY:HOVVDY
DESCRIPTION: \nLast year\, Charlie Martin impulsively wrote T-R-U-E L-O-V-E in all caps across the top of what would become the title track of his and Will Taylor’s fourth Hovvdy album. The on-the-nose instinct encapsulates the LP’s elemental look at relationships – familial\, romantic\, friendly – and that desire to capture them in a bottle. Since the creation of their last album\, both Charlie and Will have married their partners. Will became a father. \nA nod to their roots and a reach for more\, True Love maturely embraces the best of the duo’s hyper-genuine\, chin-up qualities developed over the past seven years. Charlie and Will first met at a baseball game while touring with other bands\, both as drummers. Back home in Austin\, the pair connected over shared sports-centric upbringings in Dallas and\, most prominently\, likeminded batches of solo songwriting. The interlocking tracks would become 2016 LP Taster\, introducing a comforting sonic push-and-pull continued in the innate melodies of Cranberry (2018) and the propulsive storytelling of breakthrough Heavy Lifter (2019). \nFourth album True Love follows a surprisingly folksy and beautifully determined course\, just hinting at the lo-fi layers of the Austin-based project’s DIY origins. Co-produced by the genre-morphing Andrew Sarlo (Nick Hakim\, Big Thief\, Bon Iver)\, the acoustically-driven\, forward-looking songwriters’ statement stamps Hovvdy’s debut with Grand Jury Music. \nCharlie and Will add: “This collection of songs feels to us like a return to form\, writing and recording songs for ourselves and loved ones. Spending less energy consumed with how people may respond freed us up to put our efforts into creating an honest\, heartfelt album.” \nThroughout 2020\, the band visited Sarlo’s small Los Angeles studio to put down their biggest-sounding record yet. Trusted guidance freed Charlie and Will to play to their strengths on essential elements – an upright piano\, an acoustic guitar\, a few keyboards. Songs harken to the duo’s Southern totems of Townes Van Zandt and Lucinda Williams\, with longtime collaborator Ben Littlejohn adding pedal steel and dobro for subtle drawl. Will calls True Love “the other side of the coin” from past LP Heavy Lifter’s tweaked pop\, reflecting instead on the sturdy strums of sophomore Cranberry. \n“Sarlo heard things in our individual production styles that we might otherwise feel self-conscious about\, but he would lean into them\,” says Charlie. “We knew we could come in with a very stripped-down acoustic guitar song and it would end up being expansive and vast. I felt really confident in letting this record be as tender and beautiful as we could make it\, knowing there would always be a layer of darkness in there.” \n“Blindsided” embodies the bespoke Hovvdy balance. Charlie’s waltzing piano lines and classical bedding make way for punctuated vocal assurances. Will’s textured guitar downbeats also softly power syncopated storytelling on “Lake June.” Channeling the warmth of new fatherhood\, he repeats “I love you so much” at the song’s center. \nIn the exuberant rush of title track “True Love\,” Charlie references his old Cranberry-era song “Colorful” – a wizened callback to a growing catalog\, forever morphing in hindsight. Shaking off any nostalgic haze\, the new album’s immediate production places their detailed scenes surely in the present. There’s flashes of a magnolia tree\, a Tom Thumb\, a cross on a trailer. “Around Again” frets over the fleetingness: “Memory won’t let me take a picture / Turn to me and tell me you’ll remember.” \n“It’s about resiliency and appreciating the little moments\, even when the big picture \ncan be daunting\,” says Will. “I’m proud of how we let the songs and the feeling of the record do the work for us. Even in somber moments\, the joy behind the music is noticeable\, and that’s what makes it special to me.” \n \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:CORB LUND
DESCRIPTION: \n \nCorb Lund has received multiple CCMA\, JUNO\, and international award nominations and wins. A rural Albertan hailing from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with a long family lineage of ranchers and rodeo people\, Lund is about as authentic as they come. Embracing both his Western heritage and his indie rock past through his music\, Lund has been known to filter a range of cowboy themes past and present through his unique lens – from rough-and-tumble tales of lawless frontier saloons to the somber realities of running a modern family ranch. \nMost recently\, Lund released Songs My Friends Wrote. The 10-song set features Lund putting his spin on some of his favorite songs written by close friends and world-class songwriters such as Hayes Carll\, Todd Snider\, Canadian Country Music Legend Ian Tyson\, and more. Met with critical acclaim\, Holler said in their 8.5 out of 10 Star review\, “Lund unearths\, dusts off and revives lost should-have-been classics\, hopefully encouraging listeners to search out the original versions” while American Songwritersaid\, “Lund remains a singular artist\, and the fact that he can take outside material without being affected by any dominating influence provides all the proof we needed.” No Depression said “…he and his band\, the Hurtin’ Albertans\, deliver lively\, empathetic versions that will renew your appreciation for the songs you’re familiar with and pique your interest in the writers of those you’re not” while Glide Magazine said “…the appeal is unavoidable.” Songs My Friends Wrote is the follow up to 2020’s critically acclaimed Agricultural Tragic\, Lund’s first studio album of original material in 5 years\, which earned him the 2021 CCMA award for Alternative Country Album of the Year\, his 13th career win. Lund also recently had his debut on stage at the historic Grand Ole Opry. \nLund will spend the rest of 2022 doing what he loves best\, being on the road\, before writing another album of originals for release in 2023. \n \n

SUMMARY:KOTTONMOUTH KINGS / CRAZY TOWN
DESCRIPTION: \nA versatile American hip-hop group based out of Orange County\, California\, the Kottonmouth Kings emerged in 1996 with an eclectic — and cannabis-centric — sound that integrated punk\, psychedelic rock\, reggae\, and hardcore rap. The group first attracted mainstream attention in 1997 with the track “Suburban Life\,” which appeared on the soundtrack to the horror-comedy film Scream 2 and became a modern rock radio hit. They continued to brashly beat the rap-rock drum over the next two decades\, maintaining a fierce independent streak and issuing a slew of high-charting albums like Koast II Koast (2006)\, Long Live the Kings (2010)\, and Kingdom Come (2018). \nThe self-described “psychedelic hip-hop punk rock” outfit\, comprised of former Humble Gods frontman Brad Daddy X\, rappers Saint Vicious and D-Loc\, DJ Bobby B\, and “visual assassin” Pakelika\, drew both commercial and critical praise for their 1997 breakout hit “Suburban Life.” After issuing an EP\, Stoners Reeking Havoc\, on their own Suburban Noize label in early 1998\, the Kottonmouth Kings released the full-length Royal Highness on Capitol that summer. Hidden Stash\, a collection of B-sides\, rarities\, and remixes\, followed a year later\, and their third album\, High Society\, pushed them further into the mainstream on the strength of the singles “Peace Not Greed” and “Close Call.” Gigs with D12 and Bionic Jive followed in fall 2001\, just prior to the release of Hidden Stash\, Vol. 2: The Kream of the Krop. A fifth studio album\, Rollin’ Stoned\, which was produced by Brad X\, appeared in October 2002 \nThe self-explanatory Classic Hits Live hit the airwaves in 2003 while the band continued its expansion of the Suburban Noize empire\, putting out videos and albums by rappers and punk bands. Their 2004 release\, Fire It Up\, peaked at number 42 on the Billboard 200 and came out on the stoner’s holiday\, 4/20. The Kings returned in 2005 with their seventh album\, a self-titled effort that featured guest shots from like-minded pals Cypress Hill and Tech Nine. Unfortunately\, the combo was forced to postpone its summer tour when D-Locsustained a foot injury. Koast II Koast became the band’s eighth studio full-length in June of 2006\, and rose to the number three slot on the Billboard Independent Album Chart. The compilation Hidden Stash IIIappeared at the end of the year\, with a new full-length outing\, Cloud Nine\, arriving in 2007. Like the Kings’ 2004 album Fire It Up\, 2010 album Long Live the Kings was also released on the stoner’s holiday of 4/20. Sunrise Sessions would follow a year later\, featuring more of a reggae\, dubstep\, bluegrass\, and jam band vibe\, while 2012’s Mile High returned to the world of rap-rock while reuniting the group with founding member Saint Dog. In 2015\, the Kings climbed into the Top Ten of Billboard’s Rap Albums chart with Krown Power\, an album that featured Insane Clown Posse along with reggae legend Marlon Asher. The OC rappers returned in 2018 with their 14th studio long-player\, Kingdom Come\, followed by the compilation LP Most Wanted Highs in early 2019. Saint Dog was found dead at a friend’s home on October 14\, 2020; he was 44 years old. \nCRAZY TOWN: \n \nCrazy Town’s music and image reflected one of the most dynamic and volatile sociocultural environments on the planet — Los Angeles — where the urban squalor of the South Central district exists just minutes away from the glitz of Beverly Hills. Spearheaded by a team of producers/vocalists\, Seth “Shifty Shellshock” Binzer and Bret “Epic” Mazur\, Crazy Town combined hip-hop’s lyrical attitude and rhythmic sass with the muscle of live rock instrumentation. The combination yielded the group a number one hit in 2001\, when “Butterfly” topped the Billboard 100 and helped push the band’s debut effort\, The Gift of Game\, to platinum status \nBret Mazur and Seth Binzer were both surrounded by music while growing up in Southern California. Mazur‘s father was Billy Joel‘s manager\, while Binzer‘s father was an artist and filmmaker who directed the Rolling Stones‘ live movie Ladies & Gentlemen\, The Rolling Stones. The two boys preferred a different style of music\, however\, listening instead to rap acts like N.W.A.\, Cypress Hill\, and Ice-T\, as well as alternative rock bands like the Cure. Originally from New York\, Mazurstarted crafting beats and cutting tracks at an early age and found himself working on records by MC Serch (of 3rd Bass)\, Eazy-E\, and MC Lyte; he was also House of Pain‘s DJ for a short period. Meanwhile\, Binzer had come across a copy of the Beastie Boys‘ Licensed to Ill while in Mexico\, and discovered a side of hip-hop that inspired him to start making demo recordings on his own. \nBinzer and Mazur initially came together as the Brimstone Sluggers\, and while the pair recorded plenty of music\, their contributions to other hip-hoppers’ projects prevented them from completing a full album of their own. They also each ended up in rehabilitation clinics\, where the two began writing letters that helped hatch the plan to form Crazy Town: a hip-hop band featuring a full instrumental lineup to complement the rapping vocalists. The group was to be rooted in classic rap-rock miscegenation like Run-D.M.C.‘s “Rock Box\,” or Public Enemy and Anthrax‘s collaborative effort “Bring Tha Noize. \nDoug “Faydoedeelay” Miller (bass)\, Rust Epique (guitar)\, Anthony “Trouble” Valli (guitar)\, DJ AM (turntables)\, and drummer James “JBJ” Bradley — a former session player who played on the Beastie Boys‘ Check Your Head album — were recruited to join the group\, and Crazy Town was officially born. The band’s debut album\, The Gift of Game\, was produced by close friend Josh Abraham and featured appearances by KRS-One\, dancehall toastmaster Mad Lion\, and Dirty Unit. The album spawned a world-wide hit with “Butterfly\,” an ode to attractive women\, and put the band on the road to success. \n \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:JASON BOLAND & THE STRAGGLERS
DESCRIPTION: \nFor the past 20 years\, Jason Boland & the Stragglers have dazzled audiences all over as one of the leading ambassadors of the Oklahoma and Texas music movement. Millions of fans cheering him on\, over 500\,000 records sold independently and 10 albums later\, Boland is a career musician whose legacy continues to grow. From his early days touring in cramped vans and playing in front of tiny bar crowds to the packed venues he performs in today\, Boland’s uncompromising approach has grown his profile dramatically\, especially in the past handful of years. Add to that the legions of musicians who are influenced by Boland\, and his impact on the scene is undeniable. \n\nBut just like so many other musicians\, Boland was initially paralyzed by the pandemic. At the onset of the March 2020 lockdown\, Boland was stuck at home for the longest period of his storied career without performing live. \n\nEarlier this year\, Boland released a cover of both Steve Winwood’s “Back In The High Life Again” and Bob Dylan’s “The Times They-Are-A-Changin’” with the proceeds going to charity. Radio programmers around the country began spinning Back in the High Life Again\, and the song spent 11 weeks in the Top 40 Americana Singles Chart. \n\nPrior to the pandemic\, Boland was hard at work on his most ambitious project yet. The groundwork he laid in 2019 saw the singer-songwriter roll through songs that would be a bold step forward. Strumming through the material with the Stragglers at a rehearsal in Colorado\, Boland knew he had something big. However\, that session took place a day before the lockdown and put the kibosh on the project for a year. \n\nIn early 2021\, the time felt right to get the project rolling again. At a time when pandemic albums are popping up left and right\, Boland zigged when everyone else zagged. Titled The Light Saw Me\, the acclaimed singer-songwriter decided to go deeper than he’s ever gone before to create a multi-layered sci-fi concept album. Once again teaming up with his frequent co-conspirator\, Grammy-winning producer Shooter Jennings\, Boland hunkered down in a Los Angeles-area studio to bring The Light Saw Me to life. \n\n“Jason is one of my dearest friends and\, in my opinion\, one of the smartest and coolest dudes I know. He was the first person to ask me to produce their record and many years ago we had a great time making Dark and Dirty Mile.  So it was natural for me to be more than excited to be asked to produce The Light Saw Me.” says producer Shooter Jennings\, “This album isn’t just another album from Jason & The Stragglers. It’s a magnum opus of the highest creative order\, which in turn I take as a very serious honor to be able to be a part of its inception.” \n\nThe result? The Light Saw Me is as incisive and thought-provoking as any of his previous albums and shows Boland belongs alongside the great songwriters of his time. Drawing from influences as wide as Willie Nelson’s Red Headed Stranger and Tougher Than Leather to Queensrÿche’s Operation: Mindcrime\, Boland succeeded by creating a concept album that’s as ambitious as it is accessible. On the surface\, The Light Saw Me traces a cowboy living in Texas in the 1890s who is abducted by aliens and ends up in Texas in the 1990s\, but there’s way more to it. \n\nPacked into three distinctive interlocking parts\, The Light Saw Me is layered with vivid imagery that touches on old legends\, conspiracies and other accounts that run contrary to reality. Referencing aliens can oftentimes be campy and corny\, but Boland uses them in a fascinating fashion. On the mesmerizing album opener “Terrifying Nature\,” a brooding rambler featuring red hot fiddles that encapsulates the spirit of The Light Saw Me\, Boland tackles how people come to grips with existential fear of how they’re connected to the feeling of love. It also sets up everything that’s to come. \n\nHidden behind the grandeur of the storyline\, the message that Boland aims to share is a universal one: Everyone and everything is connected by love. In classic Boland fashion\, The Light Saw Me tackles stories and themes that are integral to his writing beyond his world-class use of metaphors\, like who we are\, where we’re going\, and whether love is something that people feel internally or just connected to consciousness and humans’ fear of their own mortality. On the title track\, Boland is in total command. The lyrics illuminate all of the possibilities that led up to that moment and the sizzling track showcases his depth as a songwriter. Boland adeptly weaves in and out of the narratives\, even if you don’t realize it. The main character tries to plead his case through evocative imagery from the Bible\, astrology\, and mythology; but in truth\, Boland put these metaphors together to serve up a story that looks at the big picture in life. \n\nBoland has long been an admirer of the late\, great singer-songwriter Bob Childers\, who served as a mentor to him. It’s fitting that on an album with great depth\, that Boland would include Childers’ signature “Restless Spirits\,” to serve as a de facto climax of the album. Tying the album together thematically\, Boland uses “Restless Spirits” as a vehicle to showcase that we should have hope that love is a bond that is real\, eternal\, and still alive in the world and beyond. \n\nWhile the music remains true to the roots of Boland and the Stragglers’ Red Dirt background\, it’s as tight as anything he’s ever done. On top of the message and intricate instrumentation\, the bold storyline will please longtime fans and undoubtedly serve as a gateway album to the rest of his massive discography. \n\nFor most of his career\, the only thing you could expect from Boland is to do the unexpected. On what’s now his 10th studio album\, he not only does that\, but he did it in his own organic and authentic way. He’s making the music he wants while continuing to please the people who want to hear where his artistic journey takes him next. With a catalog like his\, that’s no easy feat. \n \n
