From time to time
a CD crosses our path that makes us say "Wow! - Now that's
what I'm talking about!" The latest release from Wrinkle
Neck Mules is just one of those CDs. Entitled Pull The Brake,
this latest CD from the Virginia-based band is a perfect mix of
alternative country, bluegrass and folk. Think early Uncle
Tupelo and Whiskeytown mixed with a little Drive-By Truckers and
sweetened with a dose of Hank Williams, Sr. There are so many
great tracks on this CD that it's hard to pinpoint a few
highlights. The opening track "Liza" sets the
mood for the CD. "Sugar and Sunshine" has a
roots-rock feel that provides a nice contrast with some of the
CD's quieter moments. "Lowlight" is another
notable track which features a collaboration with Bonnie
"Prince" Billy. |
