Hayes Carll - Kmag Yoyo

This qualifies as a standard bearer for one of the best of '11. My only word to describe it is impeccable!

KMAG YOYO is a reminder that country music is not dead yet, despite Nashville’s best efforts to smother it in hair gel and software plug-ins.

One of 4-5 records from 2011 I can't get enough of.

I've only heard Kmag Yoyo when Hayes Carll was on Mojo Nixon's show where they basically played the entire album. I need to listen to it without Mojo Nixon interjecting between the songs.

Loved all his records so far, will pick this up Tommorrow. Question-Is there a song on it as good as "Bad Liver and A Broken Heart"

This has me curious as I've really been disinterested in most of the country/Americana I've heard lately.

Other than than the Dylan-esque opener (which kicks btw) it took a couple of spins to hit that sweet spot.

I'm not fully imersed in this yet but based on the couple of spins I've given, it's a pretty good one.

BTW, the cover made me think it was dog fucker music for some reason.

Ok, I'll bite. What are the others?

mcaputo · **Posted:** Mon Feb 14, 2011 5:48 pm

in no particular order . . .

Hayes Carll - Kmag YoYo

Phoenix Foundation - Buffalo
(D-Marco turned me onto this band from Wellington, New Zealand who've apparently been making records for years. A bit downbeat, but hitting all the pop "sweet spots". After several spins, this has turned into a big WOW)

Destroyer - Kaputt (This 80's trip down metamucil lane is the first thing I've liked from Mr Bejar.)

James Blake -s/t (Wifey has been playing this one quite a bit) It's an interesting collage of samples/piano/bass loops/synth and his voice/songs. I really have no idea who or what to compare it to, but it's quite good for late-nite come downs.

Robert Pollard - Space City Kicks (more of the usual fare)

Jonny - s/t (Norman Blake/Teenage Fanclub and the guy from Gorky's Zygotic Mynci)

Anything you can recommend Bill ?

Bobo, with our similar sensibilities, the answer is, YES!

Brad Jones produced it. 'Nuff said.

This one continues a pretty strong run. Love it.

I'd heard about this, and tried to get it, but it's being released today. Instead, I got this one

for $8. Got it home and was blown away by its rich sound- couldn't stop playing it. The second song (It's A Shame) slays me. Can't wait to hear KMAG YOYO (Kiss My Ass Guys, You're On Your Own).
