WAGES OF SIN: CUSTOM OF THE SEA
SKU: WoS_C
Shite'n'Onions Review:Billed as delivering a treasure chest of "Punk Rock, Sea Shanties & Appalachian Death Polka", Seattle's Wages of Sin do not so much fuse disparate musical elements as revel in the direct lineage of their influences. Sharp tense '50's rock & roll hooks mesh with mountain fiddle stomps in a ballsy reminder that the two styles are just a short shuffle down the holler from each other; mountain music is the raw-handed grandfather of rock & roll after all. And, of course, bluegrass and Appalachian music are the frontier offspring of the Celtic and British ballad and dance music traditions. The Wages plunder these histories with total affinity and come up with a blend as clean and warm as a mouthful of Jamaican rum.Track List:1. Railway2. Lay Me Down3. The Angel's Share4. The Tyburn Jig5. Baptized By Fire6. Django7. Buccaneers (of Elliott Bay)8. Graveyard Blues9. Salty Dog Blues10. Heave Away11. Jolly Roger12. Dia De Los Muertos13. Drinkin' Days14. Saturday Saints
