“Beat Up Ford,”kicks things off with a grapevine of distortion and then swagger. The back and forth on the vocal melody is quite impressive.

“FWPB,” hits that bluesy territory, where the swagger is gone and there’s just absolute brilliance left in its place. A rolling thunder that turns and twists, before unleashing chaos.

“Temporary Man,” runs the gamut. Going for that bluesy shake and swoon.

“Down Home,” goes for the filtering feeling. A song that would get a jam going way back when. A feel good song that really hits just right.

“Whiskey Bottle,” goes to the swamp and ends up producing bourbon for days.

“Too Much Sugar,” soothes and drives, bringing some fascinating rhythms to bear.

“Exit Wounds,” hits the right notes. Filtering through and shimmying off any excess baggage.

“No Blues,” hits hard. A song that knows where to twist the knife.

“Don’t You Lie To Me,” reproduces the darkness and the edge and filters off the dregs.
