Pretty darn good if you ask me. This is 2 disk set with the second cd being a live concert that was recorded. I love when Artists do this cause you really get the feel of what they sound like in and out of the studio, and you can see some of the changes they like to make when playing live shows. In my mind this band sounds similar to Hayes Carll. Gives you that country feel, but at the same time some in your face tunes. Disk 1 has some demos on it that are previously unreleased so you get to see some cuts of more popular songs by them in their original form. Pick this one up for sure if you are a country fan or like Hayes Carll.
