The Origin of the Wasteland [Explicit Lyrics]

Jens Kofoed-Pihl , Lowcut Magazine, December 1, 2004
***** (Masterpiece) Basically, its a killer debut that all rootsrock addicts should invest in."

Product Description
A head-on mix of Traditional Country, Rock, Punk, Folk-Rock, Western Swing and other "roots" American styles, The Blind Robins offer a sharp, raw contrast to the slickly contrived music choking most of the mainstream airwaves. With pointed gallows humor, sardonic political commentary, and working class compassion, the songs of The Blind Robins betray the influence of the likes of Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, John Fogerty, Merle Haggard, Bruce Springsteen and others.

This is one hell of a fine CD with some amazing tracks. Forget the comparisons--buy the CD and listen to "Tom Paine's Bones", "By The End of the Day" "The Origin of the Wasteland" and "Landscape" and a fine cover of "Campaigner" that Neil Young would be proud of. When you're done with that and satisfied that you got a bargain, sit down and listen to the entire CD. This is a treasure. Don't let it slip away.

I recently bought this album and really like it. Really strong and smart songwriting, musicianship, and great depth and variety
of the songs. With driving country-rock beats, catchy melodies, and somewhat irreverent working class lyrics- this collection of
songs really pack a punch!
