Love that sound. I thought that sounded quite a bit like Ridgway and the gang, albeit not as new wavey. But some of it was goofy enough. And it does have that film noir feel like much of Ridgway's work. Maybe too subdued for you. Nice version of Eno's instrumental Somber Reptiles too. Maybe too indie since it does draw from many bands in the community. I think Tricky Ricky got a copy and gave it a limp thumb up. Screw him! I give it a double stiffy!

Calexico does have it's moments. Sadly the snorefest that is the iron and wine/calexico resulted in an album that only tentoze could love. OK, maybe a couple of others too (cheezy smile). Never heard much Giant Sand, what I have listened to I guess didn't exactly motivate me to run out to the record store. Guess I haven't listened to the right tracks!
