Album notes
The Knitters: John Doe (vocals, acoustic guitar, slide guitar); Exene Cervenka (vocals); Dave Alvin (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, steel guitar, baritone guitar); Jonny Ray Bartel (double bass); D.J. Bonebrake (snare drum, rub-board, percussion). The Knitters were a side project that featured Blasters guitarist Dave Alvin and members from the L.A. punk band X playing stripped-down country music. While they may not have been the most celebrated alt-country band of the era, their 1985 debut was historically significant in that it turned many a punk rocker on to old-school Americana. While that album was initially a one-shot deal, the Knitters reunited for a new album to mark their 20th anniversary. THE MODERN SOUNDS OF THE KNITTERS pretty much picks up where its predecessor left off. Alvin, John Doe, Exene, and company twang up the old X tune "Burning House of Love" and Alvin's own "Dry River," while adding rock energy and endearing punk imprecision to tradition-minded arrangements of songs by country stars Jimmie Driftwood and Bill Anderson. The closing version of Steppenwolf's "Born to be Wild" is a left-field send-up that ends this reunion album on an appealingly good-humored note.
Editorial reviews
4 stars out of 5 - Recorded studio-live in just three-days, MODERN SOUNDS...was clearly a blast. It feels like the product of a drunken weekend in some creaky West Virginian barn. Uncut
4 stars out of 5 - [D]rummer DJ Bonebrake and slap-bassist Jonny Ray Bartel pound a funeral beat....[They] breathe vital life into cover tunes... Mojo
