Grant Peeples And The Peeples Republik

A Congress of Treasons

2016-03-03

This is the 6 album in the discography of Grant Peeples, but the first one that i have heard from them. This album is a little crazy as you can tell that their are no electrical instruments on the album, but it doesn't really sound like an Acoustic album. There are a few songs that feel like you are sitting by a campfire just jamming, and the poetry skills that Grant posses really come out in those songs. So much in fact that he starts and finishes the albums with just reading poetry. I thought tracks 4/5 were the best ones on the album.
