When Kid Rock sang that you'll never meet a "m*********** quite like me," he apparently had not yet met Huck Johns. Another native of Detroit, Johns serves up a mix of hard rock and hip-hop, country, and classic rock on his 2006 debut, Huck, that's a dead-ringer for Kid, right down to the raspy delivery and a Bob Seger cover. There are few characteristics that separate Johns from Rock. For one, he can mimic the Black Crowes with startling acumen, as he does on "Answer," one of the album's undeniable highlights. He can also execute pure meathead alt-metal quite effectively, as he does on "Kill Everything," one of the album's lowlights. But for the most part, Johns follows the pattern Kid Rock laid down on Devil Without a Cause and Cocky, alternately rapping to hard rock, belting out Southern rock, or crooning tear-in-yer-beer outlaw country ballads. He lacks Bob Ritchie's humor, storytelling skills, mock-ironic swagger, and white-trash sex appeal, not to mention the down-and-dirty funkiness of the Twisted Brown Trucker band, for which he substitutes flattened, grinding metallic guitars, a regular-guy-next-door voice, and an unfortunate predilection for Staind-style earnest crooning, but apart from that, Huck is a good approximation of post-Devil Kid Rock. Now, whether or not that's something that's needed is another question entirely, but for those who wanted a new Kid Rock album instead of the live album he released in 2006, this might be worth a spin. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine Huck Johns Huck Songs | 1. | Oh Yeah |

Purchase Huck CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Alice In Chains Black Gives Way To Blue CD (2009) Limited Edition; Digipak
Huck
 $14.09   
Audio Mixer: Randy Staub .
When Layne Staley died from a drug overdose in 2002, it had already been several years since most Alice in Chains fans stopped hoping for a new album. The singer had become a recluse since the late-`90s, and there was little indication that AIC would ever again produce much in the way of new music. As a result, when the remaining members reunited to release BLACK GIVES WAY TO BLUE in 2009, expectations were low. To the delight of all however, the album proved to be perhaps the Seattle combo's most energetic and consistent effort since its masterpiece DIRT. Perhaps the most surprising element of the new record was how much it sounded exactly like Alice ...

After the dark and chilling themes of 2006's BLACK CADILLAC, which saw Rosanne Cash dealing with the deaths of her mother, Vivian Liberto, her father, Johnny Cash, and her stepmother, June Carter Cash -- all of whom passed within a two-year span -- one might assume that her next project would move into an even deeper level of bleakness, but with THE LIST, it's immediately clear that she has instead found a more measured place to stand. It's a lovely and ...

"Though large-scale success eluded these prophetic '60s combos, consider them the foot soldiers in the Holy War against the establishment," proclaims the back cover of this collection of 28 obscure garage rock singles. When they call these foot soldiers obscure, they mean it; no band here had minor or regional hits, or even accumulated a lasting cult reputation. So this will duplicate little if any of the items in the collection of the garage enthusiast, and the sound is better than it is on most such anthologies. In all, ...

| | Magazine Rays & Hail 1978-81 CD (2001) (Import) United Kingdom
Huck
$8.45
Buzzcocks leader Howard Devoto maintained his legendary status with Magazine. RAYS & HAIL 1978-1981 covers Devoto's post-punk years and includes the tracks "Shot By Both Sides," "Back To Nature," and "Song From Under The Floorboards."
British import.
The definitive single-disc collection of Magazine, a perfect starting point for the neophyte, Rays and Hail covers the three years of the band's existence with highlight after highlight on display. Devoto's mastery of a lyrical and musical approach that wedded chilly paranoia with explosive punk and post-punk energy -- as suspicious of emotion as Wire or the Gang of Four, yet at the same time more accepting and obsessed with emotion than most others at the time -- resulted in a series of jawdroppingly grand songs. Such compositions as "Feed the Enemy" and "Because You're Frightened" showcased the balance well, not to mention the ...

$6.49 | | Brian Posehn Live In: Nerd Rage CD (2006)
Huck
$11.39
Comedian Brian Posehn is a self-described metal nerd, who on this set of cutting-edge standup takes his fetish to the extreme of populating his own band, Posehn (geddit?), with legends like Anthrax's Scott Ian, Fates Warning's Joey Vera, and White Zombie drummer John Tempesta, on a self-penned metal tribute, "Metal By Numbers." Posehn, a veteran of the groundbreaking cable TV show MR. SHOW WITH BOB AND DAVE, is a shockingly funny comic, who, with his dry, off-the-cuff delivery and his routines' often scatological content, elicits both jaw-dropping incredulity and paroxysms of laughter, often in the same bit.
Balding, bitter potheads who love "real" heavy metal and Star Wars -- the real trilogy, not the ponderous prequel stuff -- never had a better friend than self-professed nerd Brian Posehn, a strange fellow you might recognize from his work on Just Shoot Me or Mr. Show (although his "Gibbons" creation on Adult Swim's Tom Goes to the Mayor is his ultimate unsettling creation). The most surprising thing about Live In: Nerd Rage is that all the oddball character actor work and edgy writing Posehn is known for seems like moonlighting after hearing his conversational and perfectly at home standup delivery. Cynicism, downtrodden disgust with self, and a heaping portion of gross sleaze are all juggled effortlessly by the man, and while his delivery flows like he's just talking with the guys, his act is tight and gives up more laughs per minute than most observational ramblers can offer. Being ...
