it's just so wonderful, i can't believe it myself. / 5
Now, I at first was a bit skeptical. A friend's mom had given me the record after hearing that I was going through an "alt-coutry phase" and decided i would be a good person to throw her copy at. According to her, it was just a little too country for her taste. That kind of scared me since i also felt that i had a low tolerance level for country (and yet, i am quite the avid uncle tupelo/wilco/son volt fan...) so i was skeptical. i listened through it one time, and laughed. Then i put it away and didn't listen to it again for about a month. When i did, i realized that it was just that absolute most wonderful thing ever. The songs are heartfelt, written well, and carried out with finesse that only a well rounded and truly talented group could have recorded these. Just absolutely wonderful. Too country? It's good stuff.
Song "Pawn Shop Ain’t No Place For A Wedding Ring"
A pawn shop ain't no place for a wedding ring
Six months from now what will that money mean?
You shop around looking for memories, somehow
The satisfaction don't come that easy
It's a shame you weren't satisfied with me
You're the saddest thing i've ever seen
A pawn shop ain't no place for a wedding ring
Six months from now what will that money mean?
You shop around looking for memories, somehow
The satisfaction don't come that easy
It's a shame you weren't satisfied with me
You're the saddest thing i've ever seen
A pawn shop ain't no place for a wedding ring
Six months from now what will that money mean?
You shop around looking for memories
The satisfaction don't come that easy
It's a shame you weren't satisfied with me
You're the saddest thing i've ever seen

Yahoo! News Search Results for band "Whiskeytown"
Don't confuse 'em with those myriad other outfits (Knoxville News Sentinel)
Just to set the record straight, North Carolina's the Cartridge Family is not the "Nationwide printer supply company," a "butchy band from Ohio" (or possibly New York) or the Cartridge Family Band - a group that generally plays for National Rifle Association gatherings.
A revived Sparklehorse is particularly bright (Boston Globe)
Sparklehorse leader Mark Linkous began his hourlong set at the Paradise Rock Club Monday night with a quietly harrowing reading of "Spirit Ditch," a highlight from his 1995 debut, "Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot." When he half-sang, half-whispered the words "Woke up in a burned-out basement," anyone familiar with Linkous's past was inclined to believe him.
Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter (The Phoenix)
Like, Live, Lustand the Open Halls of the Soul | Barsuk Jesse Sykes and her band conjure images of closing time at a dark tavern on a dusty street in a sleepy town.
On the record (Isthmus)
It?s easy to get down when your band plays the same rooms in the same small city to the same crowd. Some acts break up or move on when the walls begin to close in. Others hunker down in the basement or a more sophisticated purpose-built studio and start recording.
