Finally, after a three-year wait, Slim Cessna"s Auto Club readies Cipher, their fourth full-length on Alternative Tentacles. Dubbed by Jello Biafra as the "Country band that plays at the bar at the end of the world," Cessna and co. present traditional American music like Country & Western and Gospel straight up, without contorting it to suit Cow Punk or Alterna/Indie Country sensibilities. With their earnest approach and raucous live shows that feel more like religious revivals of a bygone era, Slim Cessna"s Auto Club has widened their reach considerably beyond their hometown of Denver, Colorado, making devotees out of pretty much anyone with a soul. Alternative Tentacles. 2008.
