This is pretty likable country-rock. Dando's vocals are a little laconic for my tastes, but the band is playing with some guts, so that sort of makes up for it. I'm not sure there's a single among these three that really stands out, but I'd like to think there is an audience for this music.

Wow, my hometown as the title of a Lemonheads song. That's kind of frightening.

I believe I read J. Mascis is playing lead guitar on "No Backbone." Def. sounds like him.

Totally OT, but I'm curious: Is it just my browser or has Pitchfork really not posted any new reviews in a week? What's going on over there?

The new Lemonheads LP could be the best thing to happen to music in 2006, period.
