  Review:

  This most recent release by the Greenhornes is their most ambitious, textured, melodic--in short their best to date, and I like the earlier ones pretty damn well. This one maintains the intensity one would expect from these guys (track 2 Underestimated is a great example) while conjuring sounds from the Kinks and of course, The Yardbirds. One thing they may have done though, that perhaps their predecessors did not is string together 12 beautifully executed and placed songs. In the liner notes Jim Jarmusch, the director of Dead Man, Broken Flowers calls the albums satisfying mix "perfect". He may be on to something, just after the halfway mark track #7 gives a powerful Black Sabbath like performance and then the listener is lulled back into the irressitable melodies and the next five tracks maintain the albums differing yet cohesive sound.

  The Greenhornes (Underestimator) - Wilcox Sessions

  The Greenhornes are serious business. When they pulled up in their blacked out tour bus, I gotta admit, we were a little intimidated. I mean these guys have played huge stadiums with Jack White, and they are coming to play my living room. Surreal. Add to the mix some fishnets, animal masks, and behl puri, and maybe they were a little intimated too? Maybe... xoxo menaka greenhornes.com thirdmanrecords.com wilcoxsessions.com
