The Austin Chronicle[2]

It was the first album to include mandolin player Wayne Gottstine.[4]

Critical reception

The Austin Chronicle wrote: "High-lonesome vocal harmonies and traditional instrumentation (except the trademark bass made from an auto gas tank) nominally bring this band under the 'bluegrass' category, but the ferocity of the playing and desperation of the lyrics would have Bill Monroe spinning in his grave like a chicken on a spit."[2]

gollark: It varies sinusoidally, but the derivative is *currently* that.
