This is their best record in a while. Still prefer That Much Further West and Tennessee, but the new "full" sound is good to hear.

Prob my fave track as well. The new Teenage Bottlerocket is incredible. Way better than Warning Device.

I loved their old stuff, specifically That Much Further West, and their live show is beyond awesome - but listening to this song i hear Nickleback or 3 Doors Down or one of those other indistinguishable bands that sells 2 million copies of their cd to people that you've never met before.

dude you could not be more wrong. I sound more like Nickleback while I'm struggling to take a shit. This is Lucero's sound, even though it's a bigger sound with the horns and stuff, it is still typical lucero.

really? because i've been listening to this band for about 5 years and seen them live a few times, and i think my opinion sticks pretty well. maybe not nickleback, but definitley 3 doors down or other more generic southern rock. this song is missing any sort of that heartache and soul that the older stuff had.

.... if you wanna do it like that, i've been listening longer than you and by no means is there any hint of 3 doors down

it's been leaked for about a month, so a quick google search will probably do

This album rules so hard. It's too bad Chuck Ragan released the album of the year already though. Nonetheless, stoked for my pre-ordered cd and Lucero patch!

Ragan's album was good, but not that good.

I don't know what it is about it exactly, but I haven't loved an album as much as Gold Country since You Are Freaking Me Out (Samiam - 1997).

Has anyone heard anything about a vinyl release for this? Thier site only mentions a preorder for a CD, which I will resort to, if they are not going to press any vinyl.

that song is so fucking good. I think this album is better than the last two. I was a bit turned off by the horns at first but now I love the whole things.

that fan video is better than most of the real videos that get put on here.

I agree completely. Kudos to the talented boys and girls who made this.

My favorite goddamn band. I've held off on listening to most of this album until it hits my mailbox in a couple weeks, at which point I'm gonna get that old kid-on-Christmas feeling.

I did the video for "Darling." Hope you guys like it (and I hope they do a post like this for every video so as many people get to see it as possible).

This band to me just feels like they are in neutral. Everything sounds the same. The music just no longer does it for me.

Dumb video, great album. Still not to sure about the horns, though. I'm hoping they don't add horns into their new songs when they're on tour.
