CROY & THE BOYS What Good's the Medicine?

Popis:

"One of Stereogum’s Top 10 Country Albums of 2023 now on vinyl!

Construction worker cum Country singer Corey Baum leads his populist two-step quartet Croy & The Boys through another set of insightful, catchy odes to the plights of capitalism and gentrification.

“Your and my favorite antifascist Austinites returned this year with another collection of candid, plain-spoken, good-timing tracks, and there are none better when it comes to capturing what it feels like to be a person in 2023. Rebuking nostalgia on “Did It Happen That Way,” singing party songs about being poor on “I Get By” and “I Know About No Money,” singing sad songs about being poor on “Damn The Working Man” and “What I Had To Do” — Croy covers them all, with unvarnished feeling and a well-honed honky-tonk swing. “Throw ‘Em Out” indeed! - Natalie Weiner, Stereogum"
