I think that BL contains some of TST's most creative lyrics. There, back on topic.

"Rage" is the word that describes Daniel Amos' 1994 release, Bibleland, coming on the heels of their psychedelic masterpiece Motor Cycle. Fans who were hungry for Daniel Amos' signature complex songwriting style and poetic lyrics were put off by simple scorchers such as "Theo's Logic" and "Low Crawls & High Times." Loud, angry, harsh, and abrasive; nowhere is this more true than on the album's premiere track, "Bakersfield," a song with references to the wrongful death of a close friend expressing anger toward public officials, incompetent hospital personnel, and an evil society. Other songs cry out about rejection and loneliness (e.g., "Low Crawls & High Times," "Out in the Cold") or poverty ("She's Working Here"). "Pete and Repeat" is the loudest track here, with simple two-beat punk drumming and blaring feedback guitars. Some peace and quiet (so to speak) can be found on the album's bookends; the opening track, "Broken Ladders to Glory," and "Stone Away" feature lead vocalist Terry Taylor's subdued voice communicating brokenness and honesty. Recorded live in the studio, mostly with first takes, a seasoned Daniel Amos fan will need to take some time to get into this one, but a persistent listen will be a rewarding one. Bring earplugs. — Mark W. B. Allender

There is a lot of rage. That's what makes Bakersfield so profound and poignant. But there is much more than rage. I think the center of the album is the beautiful refrain "And something beautiful, something clean
behind the shabby bible scenes Something real that built a dream
called Bibleland.... " There is a maturity and grace in that which is absent in earlier satirical songs that are purely dismissive.

I am really enjoying BL. I think that we should do this every week. Maybe it could be a TST produced disc too. Just a thought.

And now that the DADL has resurrected the Song of the Week discussion - it's all good.


Those of us on both the DADL and Damb could choose the disk of the week and then 7 days later suggest it as the SOTW on the DADL and get a jump start.....

I was on the DADL, but I switched e-mail addresses without telling anyone. I miss it.

It's funny cause I think I was hoping Motorcyle to be more like Bibleland turned out to be. I liked the rocking end of Kalhoun and wanted more of it. Motorcyle is a great album, but so lush and in Terry's own words, "Maybe a little busy." So it took me a long time to enjoy Motorcyle for what it is (a really great record) but I like Bibleland right away!

Low Crawls & High Times is a favorite of mine as well!

Such a great record, great songs, great raw rock-n-roll! Cool
