Acoustic Volume Two

Tony Sly and Joey Cape turn it down again on "Acoustic Volume Two" on Fat Wreck Chords. Usually the screaming frontmen for No Use For A Name and Lagwagon respectively, Sly and Cape get all acoustic and mellow - perhaps singing about the usual suspects but now we can hear it all. Since Volume One came out in 2004, both of these guys have nurtured successful solo guy-and-a-guitar careers, plus their bands live as well. The first song, "I Must Be Hateful" is so catchy, it'll live in your head for daze and "Know It All" is a funny send-up of pretentious elitists who hates every band that makes it and can now afford to eat. Thus, there's way more to these guys than three chords, a cloud of dust and a flurry of elbow howzits in the mosh pit.
