Summary:
Lead singer Mike Ness steps into the role of producer for the first time on Social Distortion's 2011 release. Here the band combines the haunted American landscapes of Hank Williams with the raw swagger of Exile-era Rolling Stones. This is one of the most hard-rocking, soulful albums of Ness' career. The grooving instrumental single, Road Zombie, sets the tone for the CD.
