Rough and gentle, punk and traditional, hardened and sensitive - this album is full of juxtapositions. It reminds me that there is a special place for the bad boy who cleans up for Christmas, tattered sweater, coiffed hair and all. There are some real gems in here, but specially the line “I could have been someone, but so could anyone”. The unapologetic vibe, mixed with the embrace of traditionalism is a nice blend.
