Review:
12th release. Comprised of Patterson Hood, Mike Cooley, Brad Morgan, Jay Gonzalez and Matt Patton. Songs writing shared between Hood and Cooley. Known for political songs, eg. track #5 is about Republican Lee Atwater and track #6 talks about political scandals. Colley and Hood consider it their best yet. Southern rock-n-roll sound featuring drawling raspy vocals, lots of guitars and plenty of drums and organ. Latter part of record are quieter.
