Unreformed hawkish Hoosier hillbilly and sometimes candidate Al Barger runs the still squeezin' down the psychodelic Kentucky moonshine at MoreThings.com, what with the paranoid religious visions and the Pentacostal music and visions of God and anarchy running amok and such. Somebody oughta call the cops to report his out of control freedom of conscience. Till they come to take him away somewhere where he can't hurt anyone else, you can check out his weekly column of NEW ALBUM RELEASES.

Excellent, thanks. This will be very helpful on several levels.

The new Calexico is excellent, and includes their cover of Love's Alone Again (Or), which has been a staple of their live shows. This is an appropriate and illuminating song choice considering Calexico's mariachi rock. Anyone who's missed this intelligent, unique band has missed sumthin'.

There is always rejoicing when there's a new Sexsmith album, and this one continues some of the mild electronic experiments of the last two, to nice effect. Any thoughts on this guy? Al, your McManus-loving soul must have some take on him.
