The Waco Brothers: Jon Langford, Deano (guitar, vocals); Marcus Durante (steel guitar); Tracey (mandolin, vocals); Alan Sprocket Doughty (bass); Steve "Leopard Boy" Goulding (drums).
Additional personnel: Iggy Yoachum (vocals); Sammy "The Bull" Ladvig, Eric (hand claps).
Though their sound often suggests what might have happened if SANDINISTA had been recorded in Nashville, the Waco Brothers come by their punk roots honestly. Guitarist/singer Jon Langford cut his teeth with the Mekons, who eventually mutated into a first-rate country-rock band, but began as died-in-the-wool punks in late '70s Britiain. The Waco Brothers are a natural extension of Langford's work with the latter-day Mekons, and COWBOY IN FLAMES should appeal to anyone enamored of that band.
The Waco Brothers marry the spirit of vintage British punk to traditional American country. Hoarse, vehement vocals and thrashing guitars mix with graceful steel guitar and mandolin on songs that trade the usual Nashville brand of romantic pathos for intelligent socio-political observations that never become didactic. Most importantly, the Waco Brothers can rock that two-step like Satan's plow-mule was nipping at their heels.

Editorial Reviews
...Langford's remakes [of 'White Lightning' and 'Big River'] add a desperate soul both songs put to use, and eventually, many of the originals surpass them....a radical postcountry record that begins in a 'suburb of Babylon' and ends snorting the ground-up bones of 'the Jones and the Ca-ashizz.' - Rating: A-
