The Scene Is Now - Tonight We Ride: 7 (B+)


# ["pomo chamber-rock" as Christgau puts it - not sure why everyone is jumping on the bandwagon and calling them a "jug band"]. Sounds like Mofungo somewhat, but not as compelling, and the singer sings out of key (also noted by Christgau). Wikipedia or someone said that most of their music is on the compilation The Oily Years, but this and Burn All Your Records are definitely not both all included there. If they ever put those two out on a single disc, I would probably buy it. I will listen to The Oily Years three times though. Maybe I'll think it rates an 8 (A-) and go for that.
