The Brooklyn Side
The Bottle Rockets
Released:
Jan 1994
Label:
TAG Records
The Bottle Rockets will forever be linked with Uncle Tupelo. Yet the Missouri outfit has always been way more Nashville than their post-Dinosaur Jr. peers. Then again, the Bottle Rockets' sophomore album, 1995's The Brooklyn Side, finds the group equally influenced by John Prine's slice-of-life cynicism and the ragged twang of Neil Young and Crazy Horse. So yeah, they aren't Randy Travis or anything; simply check out the chunky distorto-riffs of "Sunday Sports" or the nasty humor of "Radar Gun" -- "Radar gun, radar gun/ I'm making money and having fun/ With my radar gun."
