Search - Minus 5 :: At the Organ

Clocking in a just less than twenty minutes, At The Organ comes galloping out the gate and fully describes Scott McCaughey's always unfolding powers. The Minus 5's shifting personnel base finds him teamed up with Wilco, with whom he created the delightfully titled Down With Wilco last year. In a sort of inverse of his earlier and other band, Young Fresh Fellows, The Minus 5 exist as a fully rocking studio enterprise that can spring to life in performance on rare occasions as well. "One More Bottle To Go" is the sound of the recording process itself having a perfect and pronounced effect on the final results, but at the same time packing a nicely centered wallop. As always, deeper listening is rewarded with head-turning surprise and all manner of alluring satisfaction. --David Greenberger
