KENT’S KORNER
Not much to say today. I listened to CROOKED FINGERS all of once, thought it wasn’t bad, probably deserved a couple more listens to really adapt to it. I heard SECRET SOUTH at least twice, maybe three times, and it’s a alt-country record with a lot of atmosphere, almost a slowcore vibe, and I dug it.
CROOKED FINGERS: Interesting/Like
SECRET SOUTH: Like
KENT SEZ: Obviously I prefer SECRET SOUTH, but if you want to vote for the guy from Archers of Loaf, who am I to blame you?
