Album Review

With Tony Gilkyson on guitar and collaborating a bit with songwriting, Exene Cervenka finally turned out a charming, timeless album of mostly quiet, quirky folk music. Touching on her pet subjects -- social injustice, women in trouble, and white trash culture -- she nails it on the dark "Here Come the Crucifiers," the eco-ballad "Leave Heaven Alone," and the spunky "White Trash Wife." ~ Denise Sullivan, All Music Guide
