THE GRAVES BROTHERS DELUXE / San Malo CD / Green Cookie Records / 2009

Brilliant bad-attitude rock expertly produced by L.A. legends Geza X and Paul Roessler. World-weary in a totally pissed-off way that’s also very funny, with some of the tastiest slide guitar I’ve heard in years. BONUS: Features PCR ace DJ STOO ODUM on stringed instruments, vocals, and way-offbeat songwriting.

SOUNDS LIKE:
RADIOHEAD, NOMEANSNO, GUN CLUB

SUGGESTED TRACKS:
1 “San Malo National Anthem” (instrumental goodness)
4 “Five Foot Category Five” (ambivalence defined)
6 “My Heart Burned Down Today” (catchy and danceable – a hit!)
