One of the funnest dark albums ever!
John Schultz | Midwest USA | 10/16/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"By far my fav of all the femm albums. Dark and at times campy this never gets old to my ears. I know the first album is full of some of their best known tracks but I hung up my beer-bong many years ago and have come to appreciate this to it's fullest. The classic folksy country death song gives me a chill when Gano cries out that he hung if self in shame, his voice is filled with the crackling of a man who has stepped over the line of sanity. The improv in the middle of black girls was at first annoying to me but it grows on you now it's one of my favorites. But the undisputed champ on this album for me is Never Tell. It has typical femm lyrics that just stick in your head and at over 7 minutes long it has left me breathless and my jaw hurting when jammin along. if you like the femms at all it must not be missed!"
Good, but "Country Death Song" is live on this version

"Maybe I'm mistaken, but when I had this album in college, "Country Death Song" was a studio version just like the rest of the album. I bought this yesterday on Amazon, and the first song is a live version!? I'm going to see if I can get my money back or at least get the studio version of the song. It wasn't always live was it?"
