Not Freebird
I read a quote somewhere by some dude in My Morning Jacket saying the new album sounds different from their previous output. Really? How many bands actually say, "Yeah, the new album's pretty the same old shit... no change."?????????
This time the dude's not lying. Just listen to the first cut off of their new album. Keyboard atmospherics in a My Morning Jacket song? Electronic percussion? Falsetto histrionics? Wordless Chorus? Obviously.
Wordless Chorus
The next song sounds, according the Ice, like the Replacements (and I agree). You've never heard the dude sing like this. The ultimate fist pumping, throwing the dog off the boat, taking a dump on the hood of your worst enemy's car type of jam.
Anytime
