Following up their 2008 debut “Stomping Grounds”, Mother James is back with another album filled some of that blues stomp, pop hooks, warm horns, shouted vocals and a raggedy piano. It’s all you need to create an album that sounds great and that welcomes you in. Two songs later it feels like you’re having a beer with dudes you’ve known for most of your life. It’s nothing you haven’t already heard before but I’ll be damned if the songs on “Brute Noir” aren’t a helluva lot of fun to listen to!
Score: 7 out of 10
