5.05.01 - It is shameful how long it's
been since this site was updated. Now it looks as if Redrival
will be pulling up the rug from under this site and many others, as it is
switching to a pay host. This webmaster has bought enough time to think about
whether to start paying for banner free hosting from Redrival or go to Geocities or back to
the dreaded Tripod. I would like to
thank Redrival for trying to provide free, ad-free hosting for as long
as they did. --bmgb |

Freakwater's End
Time named no. 3
on Amazon.com's
top 100 albums of
1999 "Freakwater's fifth record is an outright masterpiece. Yet another
antidote to Nashville commercialism, End Time brings us an entire suite of
provocative originals from the indie band, who twang their unmistakable,
plaintive harmonies against a motley assortment of Dobro, mandolin, fiddle,
keyboards, drums, and strings. The pinpoint imagism of their brooding lyrics
is razor sharp and full of startling, Dylanesque turns of phrase, giving
depth to Freakwater's ragged and haunted beauty." |
