One of the best concept albums ever. This dynamic, searingly personal portrait of a troubled man's life is may be nonfiction, but the bruising lyricism and unflinching, often abrasive noise-folk clatter have the weight and power of a masterfully-written tragedy. The album's highlight, "I Love You Like an Alcoholic," is a tender duet of battered beauty, a fragile glimpse of heaven from the gutter that's worthy of Tom Waits. For a record like this, I have no higher praise. K.R.K.

As much as I like the current line up, I do miss the dynamic that Marissa's voice added to the band. Plus, she's one of the better washboard players out there. Terry Aston
