Slim Cessna’s Auto Club – Buried Behind The Barn


“Buried Behind The Barn” isn’t really a new album seeing as these songs were already recorded back in 2000 and 2001. But for some reason they have never been properly released except for a couple of them who were featured on vinyl releases or on an EP that was limited to 200 copies.

The songs on here are familiar territory for the fans. Slim Cessna and his Auto Club are still singing songs about murderers, whores and the likes and still like to wrap their songs in a musical mix of gothic country, bluegrass, folk and punk. And they still do a great job. Check out the catchy “Port Authority Band” or “Angel”, a very very country-sounding song that wouldn’t look out of place on a Dolly Parton album. And then you still have “Earthquake” to go... apparently it’s label boss Jello Biafra’s favorite song and it’s one hot piete of hillbilly funk if there is such a thing.

Trust me... any band that has songs like this just lying around somewhere, is a good band.
Score: 7 out of 10
