We're not [...]

New July 21 album Some Assembly Required , the band's second studio outing, has Genaur looking beyond the self-described "1920's Dust Bowl kind of blue-collar Americana" of '07's Recollection for a more varied sound...and some special guests to help bring his musical vision to fruition.
