Undefeated

""Undefeated" implies that Bare is anything but. The ten songs here threaten at times to up and wander off, but Bare manages to hold everything together with some strong songwriting and unusual, borderline retro arrangements. Heartache rarely sounds this good".

"Bare and his bandmates don't try to force humor when it doesn't belong on Undefeated, but there is a certain woozy wit that snakes in and out of several of these tunes despite the heartache and occasional bad feelings, and Bare and his bandmates give these songs just the right instrumental attack, tight yet ambling, and this ranks with Bare's best work since Bare Jr. called it a day".
