Free Music Review: the type of album that changes your life...
Hit: 5 Stars

The Old 97's "Wreck Your Life" is an album that changes one's life. No matter what type of music you dig, there's somethng on the record for everybody. From the opening cut "Victoria" ("This is the story of Victoria Lee/She started out on Percodan and ended up with me") to the closing salvo of "Goin', Goin', Gone," "Wreck Your Life" is nothing short of a masterpiece. Most tended to label the 97's as an "alt-country/punk-country/whatever..." sort of band at the time of this record, but I really think the 97's defy genres. The country influence is definitely here-and it's a good, crisp, traditionalist sound rounded out by Rhett Miller's acoustic strumming and waltz-time tunes as well as Ken Bethea's Telecaster wrangling, but there is a punkish enthusiasm and bite to the songs as well as some pop leanings. Besides, "Wreck Your Life" is certainly, lyrically, the most memorable album of the 97's career, yet. Just listen to "Dressing Room Walls" for proof.

Wreck Your Life Poster

True punk mettle fearlessly cross-bred with deep country soul. The Bloodshot debut by the favorite sons of Dallas is chock full of blinding stutter guitar, soaring vocal harmonies, and keen songwriting. Don't be left behind, scratching your head wondering where you were when it all started. Features cameos by Jon Langford and yodeling legend Don Walser. 12 hard-charging Texas gems including "Victoria Lee," "Big Brown Eyes." as well as blistering covers by country stalwarts Bill Monroe.
