My favorites are probably "Escape From Ohio" (which reminds me of early Urge Overkill) and "I Belong In The Factory," but "Body Shot" definitely gets bonus points for mentioning Detroit (not the only song to do so) and for being about the same topic as Van Morrison's "Blue Money" and the Fabulous Poodles' "Tit Photographer's Blues" and for reminding me of early Was (Not Was). Also hear more Gary Numan, Marilyn Manson, and Hold Steady than usual on the new album. Anyway, it's definitely a good one, as was their previous one. I think I'd missed one or two before that. Still, really encouraging to find out these guys are still plugging away with their riffs and sense of humor intact, six albums in. Who knows who their audience is these days...
