"Blackberry Smoke are traditionalists through and through, carrying the flame for good old-fashioned American rock & roll. Now that they're closing in on their 20th anniversary, Blackberry Smoke sound like veterans in the best possible sense. As a band, they carry their chops and muscle with casual authority, letting the leathery rhythms speak as loudly as the songs themselves. And Charlie Starr's songs are sturdy things, crafted with care and evoking the past without being beholden to it. The result is a splendid little record that simultaneously feels brand new and like a lost gem".

"Bizarrely, in a musical landscape populated by glitchy beats and artists who are more technician than musician, prodding hopefully at laptops, maybe Blackberry Smoke is the real alternative in 2018. Think about it - people are rushing to buy their music collections again on vinyl, after being told that LP records were as dead as disco. Surely it's just a short hop over to the world of perpetual 1974, where Blackberry Smoke are kings and Jimmy Page and Waylon Jennings are worshipped as gods. Smoke 'em if you got 'em - Blackberry Smoke are heading your way in a '72 Winnebago, and you should be grateful".
