Man, I hope I can get behind this new Candy Butchers like some of you guys, but on the first few listens, I'm getting that "gut-wrenching" feeling for the wrong reasons. So far, I think the album's half-baked, compared to previous CB efforts.
On the other hand, I got the new Honeydogs in the mail from United Musicians, and it's my early pick for Best Album of 2004. Fan-frickin'-tastic.

I have to say I'm partial to the Blue Thumb record,
but after a few listens, "Hang On Mike" might end up
winning. Not to slight "Falling" or "Play with Your
Head" (terribly underrated, imho), but this one's a
frickin' killer. Mike Gent's guitar leads are spot on,
and material is a total emotional rollercoaster. The
"Hang On Mike"-"Painkillers"-"Superkid" segment is
just gut-wrenching.
