He makes this a very nice tune.

2 listens in and really loving this one. You get the feeling this guy hasn't peaked.

Definitely one of my top 3 bands at the moment. I think Born on Flag Day is even better.

absolutely. I loved their previous ep. The new one is completely different but I like the track they are on. I really need to see those guys.

Middle Brother - S/T The Deep Vibration - Strange Love Buffalo Tom - Skins Centro-Matic - Candidate Waltz Rural Alberta Advantage - Departing on or near the list: J Mascis - Several Shades of Why Okkervil River - I am Very Far Hayes Carll - KMAG YOYO Silos - Florizona Dawes - Nothing is Wrong

agreed...I haven't put this one away for a full week since picking it up.

I was looking at this but it didn't mention immediate download. Heading back. Thanks!

Yea, I saw him last night at a little radio gig that I won tickets to. Great stuff. He mentioned the baby, John Henry, and how that slowed him down from touring with Allison. He played a few songs from the new album along with a couple of others. All sounded great despite some technical difficulties. I've listened to the new album 3 or 4 times through and think it's great. Also a bit of a grower. This guy is in quite an artistic peak with a novel, acting, new album and a play in the works. Keep 'em coming Steve.

I thought there was an Amazon thread somewhere but this one will do. A great album. The Silos released a new one and it sounds great. $5 on Amazon now: Silos Florizona

As a guy that dislikes Dave Matthews and is not a fan of a festival, this looks to be a very interesting one. Emmylou, DBT, Alberta Cross, Sharon Jones, Daniel Lanois, The Jayhawks, Flaming Lips, G-Love. Sounds good. That, plus Dave plays a full set each night. This would assure me the ability to get home early. Will have to give this some thought.

awesome... these guys are definitely one of my favorites right now along w/Deer Tick. Loving the Middle Brother album.

Ditto that

Maybe because their old.

Either this is just an awesome album or I'm in the perfect mood for an album just like this one. J at his most mellow and a host of guest stars like Ben Bridwell and Kurt Vile...amongst others.

Yes, I've posted my very brief and initial feelings in the Now Playing thread. Three of my favorite artists in a supergroup nobody has heard of. I never would have linked these bands from listening to them individually but I'm glad that they hooked up. After 4 or 5 listens I'm really liking the album as a whole. The Replacements cover is solid and fits in well with the sound of the album. I'd like to check them out on this tour but doesn't look like it's in the cards for me. Delta Spirit and Deer Tick are very solid live...haven't seen Dawes. Would love to see these guys together.

New Middle Brother album. I really like it after three or four spins. Love the Replacements cover...nice choice.

Well that's concerning. Coincidentally, Delta Spirit and Deer Tick are two of my favorite bands to come out in the last 10 years. I like Dawes quite a bit as well. Was shocked that they were making an album together. I'll have to hunt this one down.

After a couple of spins, I'm really liking the new one. Agree with Pulaski but I Do Believe is also extremely catchy. Although I miss Isbell, the timing seemed right to me. Great to see him solo. I do think Cooley should have picked up the slack rather than Shonna though. Her songs are nice but just don't fit the Truckers albums well to me. I'll have to check out that dockumentary

Add me to this small pile of fans. I'm looking forward to listening to the new one. Love Veracruz and don't hear a single comparitive note with Uncle Tupelo or Wilco.

Yes, it's good.

I agree on all counts. The new album is solid but I'm still easing into it. I really liked You Can't Win. Not sure if they tour much but would like to see them come through the midwest.

very cool song. I'd like to see him put out a full solo album. I loved 1372's big sound but would really like to hear something like his solo EP again.

Agreed. I also like the Fall 2007 version of Shepard's Dog that he released with alternate versions. I'm really liking the new one quite a bit.

And it's awesome. Really liking it one listen through.
