Self-Titled LP

Whiskey Myers' self-titled LP is a rebel yell at the genre crossroads, defiantly flouting easy categorization. "Die Rockin'" bursts forth with bravado, but the album slyly pulls the carpet out from under you; it's a meditation on contradictions. As tracks like "Bury My Bones" and "California to Carolina" unfold, you might find yourself questioning whether it's a celebration of freedom or a lament for lost roots; that push and pull is where the real intrigue lies.
