Thoughts

This feels like an album that probably shouldn’t work - The Chicks have been through a lot, have changed their name, and have used the extensive pain and misery of divorce to fuel the songwriting throughout this record. But somehow it does. It’s angry, sure, and if you’re feeling in a zen mood, it’s not going to work for you.

But if you feel like kicking butt and not letting people get away with stuff, then it’s really good. There’s some catchy stuff from start to finish, you can feel the influence of Jack Antonoff as the band move a little more away from country and towards pop. A really good album!

Rating: 4 / 5
