The sophomore release of this Oregon six-piece, filled with swooping pedal steel and searing lead guitar, awash with four-part harmonies, and punctuated by Barr`s gravelly voice and crackling lyrics. This is a roots-rock band that is as likely to draw inspiration from The Beach Boys and Warren Zevon as they are from Merle Haggard or Gram Parsons. Jangly pop, gut-bucket country, urban folk, 60`s psychedelia and straight up rock collide in a mid-air collision, creating a compelling clamor that has been called "West Coast Roots." "Scotland Barr & the Slow Drags want to take you down with them and with one listen, you`ll want to go. Barr`s vocals have a boozy nonchalance, and the four-part harmonies on some songs recall the Beach Boys and the Band." - Glen Starkey, San Luis Obispo New Times. "combines the best parts of The Allman Brothers, Wilco, Steve Earle, and Merle Haggard." - Don Campbell, OregonLive.com. "[Scotland Barr & The Slow Drags] mine roots music, mutating centuries of tradition with a modern sensibility much like the Band didwith a gravelly voiced singer and an ear for imagery." - Ap Kryza, Willamette Week
