Description: OLD 97'S-FIGHT SONGS-CD-(Country Rock) Barely into the second track of Fight Songs the Old 97's, who've made cantankerous sore-heartedness a virtue, sound harmonically mellow and sweet. "Lonely Holiday," on first pass, is edgeless, but then you get "19" and yet more polished eschewal of this old band's incisive penchant. Does it bring Fight Songs down? A bit, but clean production aside, the Old 97's show tremendous growth from the scrappy twang of Wreck Your Life and even Too Far to Care. These are pop tunes, no doubt, and the twang might be somewhat eclipsed in spots. Guitarist and singer Rhett Miller's hardly budged an inch on his confessional pissing and moaning, still keeping it clear that he's bent out of shape. And the band's decided to trim its instrumental colors in the production process, which leads to a vaguely compressed feel in the guitars and an even more up-front occasion for Miller to sound off. --Andrew Bartlett Label: Elektra – CD 62373Format: CD, AlbumCountry: CanadaReleased: 1999Genre: Rock, Folk, World, & CountryStyle: Country Rock PLEASE NOTE CUT ON SPINE,DOES NOT AFFECT BOOKLET TRACKLIST:1 Jagged 3:272 Lonely Holiday 4:083 Oppenheimer 3:274 Indefinitely 3:415 What We Talked About 4:106 Crash On The Barrelhead 2:397 Murder (Or A Heart Attack) 3:418 Alone So Far 4:189 Busted Afternoon 3:1210 Nineteen 3:4111 Let The Idiot Speak 3:4312 Valentine 3:08
