The Brag & Cuss [CD]

If you like acoustic rock with a punk attitude and folk sound, then you should pick up this album. I don't need to talk about Rocky Votolato, because you should already know who he is, which is a musician who writes awesome music. This album is no exception. While it is a continued departure from where he started musically (a journey started years before I was a fan), The Brag and Cuss is an evolution of the sound he created 2 albums prior. It's a fresh take on a tired genre. These days, everyone is rockin out with their acoustic guitars, play melodies and riffs that we've all heard before, but not Rocky. He always plays a brand of rock that is genuine and unique, nothing overdone here. Basically the album is a wonderful piece of work, created by a man that I have no problem saying is my favorite musician. Buy it and find out for yourself why I've been listening to him for 5 years.
