Free Music Review: Praise for Rodentia: the Best of Dark Roots Music
Hit: 5 Stars

Having recently walked the bridge from old school Country & Blues, such as Blind Willie McTell, Lightnin' Hopkins, and Elmore James on over to the darker and more experimental side of roots music and americana, I can say that this particular album has only increased my newfound taste for it. I was already a big fan of Slim Cessna's Auto Club, Reverend Glasseye, O'Death, and Strawfoot, but I have now been introduced to a number of other bands and singer/songwriters of this genre. Almost all of the bands and singer/songwriters listed in this record are said to be giants of this style of music, and after a single listen to it in its entirety one can easily see why.

It isn't difficult to understand why music fans are harkening back to a period of music that was well before their time, trying to realize its birth and the years that followed, as well as embrace the new bands and singer/songwriters who have carried on where the old masters left off. Dark Roots, or Gothic Americana as some call it, is a genre that I intend to follow for a long time to come.

Check out the article I wrote for the Philadelphia Examiner on Rodentia: The Best of Dark Roots Music.

Of course, since Amazon doesn't allow direct links from unauthorized outside sources, just read between the lines and you can make it work.

Strongly recommended.
