Rocky Votolato
The Brag & Cuss
Barsuk
2007
Grade: C -
This is a very mediocre album. I kind of feel bad that I don’t like this more because I read somewhere that this guy just started making enough money from music to quit his shitty day job. I do like some of his other songs, but I don’t really like too many on this album. It’s all very ‘eh’. I liked his music much better when it was just him and a guitar. On this one there’s much more variation in the instruments. He’s definitely gone more country too, adding a lot of harmonica and some banjo and a definitive country sound.
If you’re looking for a melancholic indie-country-folk album that has a decent amount of lyrics referring to drinking, than this is for you.
