The information gathered on We Are Only Riders companions of musician who died in 1996, however, convey the impression that Jeffrey Lee Pierce was such a thing as a singer / songwriter. There 70% of country and folk arrangements, interspersed only occasionally with an electric guitar, but often exhilarating and ballad and compared to Pierce and The Gun Club also complacent. Will it then but electrically, it must just be The Raveonettes, who feel called to do so. Your contribution, however, is worst (yes am not the first one here, who pointed out) and falls as Jesus & The Mary Chain for arms anyway out of the ordinary. Modest is next to the post Johnny Dowd also so typical whine Lydia Lunch on a total of 3 pieces, in the 80s eternally bad girl, now the evil granny! their interpretation at best, their narrowness shows in terms of musical vocation.
However, there are also good to report. The Sadies, David Eugene Edwards, Mark Lanegan & Isobel Campbell show their respective innate class, Deborah Harry served an incredibly beautiful version of Lucky Jim. And even Nick Cave, I do not like otherwise, shows taste sure unexcited. However, his duet with Deborah Harry (Free To Walk) is the culmination cozy mainstream country Geschunkels as fresh (?) From Nashville, Tennessee. And so like those scattered beads indeed move lovers of alternative country, but with Jeffrey Lee Pierce and The Gun Club has the album to do two-thirds little musically. For campfire and country ballads were despite focus on the "Roots" American treasure of songs basically never the cause of drug geschwängerten Rockers. In this respect, I find the main direction of the arrangements and the production very irritating.
On the whole, not bad work, but mixed and disappointing.
