Raise a glass to the latest entry in Bloodshots Barrel Select Series! Barrel Select exists to highlight the best of Bloodshots cask-strength catalog. Robbie Fulks has made some of the finest records we can claim as our own, but if theres only room for one on that sacred shelf at the top, its Gone Away Backward. At a time when modern country feels like bloated spandex-and-Aquanetted pop-metal, Fulks defiantly embraces an unflinching traditionalism. Pastes words, not ours, but were not gonna argue the point they made when Gone Away Backward hit their doorstep 11 years back. They also called this a tour du force of bluegrass-derived spare country, which well also let stand. Magnet said it was the best album Fulks has ever made, period, and out of respect for the wonderful work Robbie has done in the past decade, well simply point out that this too is an 11-year-old review. With Steve Albini at the board, Robbie was able to break his songs down to their core and fire his characters, his chops, his band, and his amazing voice directly at listeners souls. We recorded it pretty fast, in a couple of days. People are always bragging that they did it without overdubs, but thats the way we did it. The results are everything we ever wanted from Robbie and a high-water mark of folk or bluegrass or alt-country or whatever genre bucket you want to pour his gifts into.
