Fav. songs: Highball with the Devil and George E. Porge. Would have been nice to hear something a little different from Les. I feel that the songs are a litttle too resemblant of his Primus days. But, all in all I am pleased.

As a musician, I wouldn't give it more than 2 starts, BUT this album is so rich in content and ideas. I think Brown Album is a tighter derivative of this one but I dig the feel so much! I love it.

I knew of Les from Primus years but I was not that into the band. Then last year at the moe down I saw him play for the first time. I have been in awe since. I chose this disc from the other reviews and I have to say that I listen to it a good 3-4 times a week. If you are just starting out collecting Les music then I feel you would enjoy this. It is excellent for a studio album (live is always better with any jam band as you know!) Happy listening!

The vocals on this CD are actually much better than I expected. I mean, they are baseball players first and then singers second (I assume). But they all did a fine job and I think my favorite would be Coco Crisp - he really gets down! The CD represents a wide range of styles, too - country, rap, hip hop, blues, rock, and will delight any musical baseball fan. I'd say this selection defintely hits a home run with this listener.

For those who have heard their first album, _Chronicles_, they're in for a surprise, particularly in lyrical content and in production. Bob Mould's production was heavier, with more emphasis on guitars. Brad Wood lets the music breathe, with plenty of room for the bass and cello lines to come through. The songs themselves are more personal in nature, akin to Jason & Alison's _Woodshed_, but show a different perspective on the subjects of release and moving on.If you don't have _Chronicles_ already, pick both it and _White Out_ up -- you won't be disappointed.

Verbow has to be the best new group on the scene. All though they aren't all THAT new, they are certainly a fresh new sound. The mixture of the classically trained cellist, Alison, as well as Jason's incredibly versatile voice. .you have a winning combination. Their music will appeal to almost any audience. It's a great album that you can put on repeat over and over again and not get sick of. I HIGHLY recommend getting it!!
