The album slows down at “You Got Another,” however. A sluggish song with little musical variation, it separates itself from the first half of zingy pieces. While the album picks up afterward, some songs, “It’s Going to Be I Told You So,” and “Santa Fe,” dip into the lackluster style of “You Got Another,” and stray away from the grotesque themes and musically diverse songs from before. At its end, the album redeems itself, finishing with the acoustic beauty, “Eyes Like Glue.”
Tackling Jesus, murder mysteries, loneliness, strippers, alcoholism — all against the backdrop of fast food restaurants and small towns in the south — the Drive By Truckers create a dark, troubling compilation about tragic folks in desperation. Although a bit whiney at times, they are ultimately something like the Flannery O’Connor of country music, only less enthusiastic about Jesus. Twelve years after the release of their first album, Gangstability, the southern rockers show they’ve flowered into a force to be reckoned with. Forgive me for being cheesy, but the Truckers keep on truckin’.
