...suffering from a nagging sense of loss. The open range was fenced in long ago, but the hell-raising atmosphere lingered on. It was a smoky, boozy atmosphere, unfit for sensitive, rigid, allergic types, but it did allow a person to breathe deeply. And to cough a lot too, of course; that was also part of it (maybe that's a reason cowboys wore red neckerchiefs).

Say what you will about 2004’s Antics, but their debut album...
