I have probably not like an entire DKM album from start to finish since "The Gangs All Here"....which was a long time ago. Over time, now matter how much interest I loose in this band...I seem to find myself picking up each release and enjoying only a few songs on most of the albums; however, on this record I enjoy most of the songs. This album makes it seem like the band scalled Al Bar back a little bit and put Ken Casey on more of the lead vocals. Add in some guests like Bruce Springstreen and the result is pretty good.
