Release Notes:
There was a time, in the '70's and '80's, when regional
America threw up amazing rock 'n' roll bands every few months.
Akron, Detroit, Seattle, Boston, Washington DC, Chapel Hill,
Memphis, Dallas, the country kept turning out wayward
visionaries, grounded in rock 'n' roll but telling singular
stories. In the 21st century, media-watchers keep telling us
we're becoming more and more alike. They are completely wrong,
of course, and here's the latest piece of evidence. Thomas
Function love punk rock, but they love country, blues, new
wave, garage rock, and the shit happening up the street, too.
It comes out sounding like a bunch of earnest, severe songs
from the foothills of Huntsville, Alabama, full of anger,
clarity, and bourbon. Is America on the brink of a new rock
'n' roll renaissance? People who snapped up their instantly
OOP singles, saw one of their chaotic shows, or participated
in the fervid blogging about this bunch aren't betting against
it.
