Backyard Tire Fire return with their new studio album. Distinguished by a rare combination of workingman authenticity and indie-rock eccentricity, the release is defiantly contemporary whilst remaining true to its deep Midwestern roots. It's spiked with the truth-telling salt of Hank Williams, the beautiful melancholy of vintage Tom Waits and the pop smarts of a Midwest Big Star. Backyard Tire Fire embody all the great and simple things that make rock 'n' roll endure.
