"This local trio has been a fiery live attraction for years, and though its members are hardly celebrities they've got solid credentials -- guitarist and front man Andy Hopkins has worked with Andrew Bird, for instance, and drummer Mike Bulington also plays in Grimble Grumble and Clyde Federal. But after two albums I'd begun to despair of them ever capturing their blend of slow-hand soul, sexy glam, and old-fashioned hard rock on disc.
Their new DUTY, though--now that's the goods.
Producer Mike Lust doesn't wipe any of the garage grease or barbecue drippings from the sweet ballads and rowdy stompers, and "Duty .. 2" spends a long layover in the designated smoking area at Funkytown International Airport. The band's playing every Satruday in November at the Hideout to celebrate DUTY's release."
