Remember when Strung Out tried to play Southern acoustic music, but ultimately
failed? Well, undeterred by this, Saw Wheel have gone right ahead and attempted the feat themselves.

crooky you are seriously in no place to poke fun when you write like that And the reality is that RJ's vocals sound very similar to Rumbleseat's vocals....it's the most obvious comparison to be made, and i would say the correct one. These days, in the "punk market", Rumbleseat are probably the most well known band of this type. I thought people on this site would get the comparison more. I love it when a guy only knows one or two bands of a genre and trys to say that everyone else in that genre is trying to be them or that that style of music is covered by the two he knows. I'm not saying this record is gold but Rumbleseat wasn't the first and won't be the last band to do music like this. Also I the vandals country record predates whatever shit strung out did. i think CoC is better at southern rock than AWS or SO. (yeah, i know, its been about 20 years since they put out an album that could be considered punk. blow me) Lee- so it looks like i exceeded the amount of bandwidth allowed at photobucket, so the hill billy stew site is rather bland right now as a result....sorry, all the content is there still, just not the thumbnails....if you really want to order the cd online, go to www.hazzardrecords.net that is where saw wheel's home page is hosted to www.hazzardrecords.net/sawwheel.htm other places like no idea / interpunk / suburban home have in stock too. thanks. singer equal RJ Cresswell of One Reason. Not Richard. Rumbleseat is good...so is David Bowie. Saw Wheel made me think of Warszawa for some reason. people must have missed that aws review then....thats the only explanation for this, but even so... You must have missed the southern album. "Remember when Strung Out tried to play Southern acoustic music, but ultimately failed? " No, but I remember when Strung Out made a career of speeding up cheesy 80's metal riffs and fooling everyone into thinking it was groundbreaking. Because it was poorly written. But still, his aren't exactly better. And it is punknews...... thats a fuckin hilarious opening. i dont know why fucko down there had a problem with it "Violins and cellos are not more punk; they're more acceptable" I have never seen the big attraction to Avail, or most "melodic hardcore punk rock and roll" whatever bands. This is no exception. Plan-It-X has such a sketchy output. Violins and cellos are not more punk; they're more acceptable. Christy C Roads front cover artwork as well....bonus! i've been meaning to pick this up for awhile ever since the webmaster of the now defunct drunken third website recommended it. anything that is similar to rumbleseat will more than likely appeal to me. I like the opening line. Will... you're kind of an asshole. Ugh... No more 10th grade English assignments posing as reviews, please. Remember when Strung Out tried to play Southern acoustic music, but ultimately failed? Holy crap, check out the last few comments on the Rumbleseat review. Fuckin' GOLD! |
