The studio, not to mention the artwork patterned after such disregarded Chess psychedelic-era relics as, are good indications that the tough blues band of earliest records is back, but the group hasn’t forgotten what they’ve learned in their inwardly psychedelic mid-period. Still can get mighty trippy -- the swirling chintzy organ that circles “The Only One,” the Baroque harpsichord flair of “Too Afraid to Love You” -- but the album is built with blood and dirt, so its wilder moments remain gritty without being earthbound. Sonically, that scuffed-up spaciness -- the open air created by the fuzz guitars and phasing, analog keyboards, and cavernous drums -- is considerably appealing, but ' ace in the hole remains the exceptional songwriting that and are so good. They twist a stomp into swamp fuzz blues, steal a title from but never reference that classic groove, and approximate a slow ‘60s soul crawl on “Unknown Brother” before following it up with a version of s “Never Gonna Give You Up,” and it’s nearly impossible to tell which is the cover. And that’s the great thing about in general and in particular: the past and present intermingle so thoroughly that they blur, yet there’s no affect, just three hundred pounds of joy.
