The Waco Brothers are an institution. Together for over 20 years now, the Chicago-based alt-country party rockers have released 10 records including instant classics like 1997’s Cowboy In Flames. This Friday, though, the group will release its 11th LP, Going Down In History, on Chicago’s own Bloodshot Records. Below, A.V. Club readers can get a first listen to the whole thing, from the gritty bar cut “Receiver” to “All Or Nothing,” a cover of The Small Faces’ classic.
Pre-orders for Going Down In History are available via Bloodshot’s site right now. Waco Brothers are touring this spring, and dates are below.
