Album of the Week: THE COWBOYS – ‘The Bottom of a Rotten Flower’

How the hell did we sleep on this one?

Bloomington, Indiana’s The Cowboys 4th album ‘The Bottom of a Rotten Flower‘ came out on Valentine’s Day and is a veritable box of rock and roll party tricks. But somehow we’re just getting around to featuring it and its 16 tracks of glorious classic sounding power pop.

It’s melodic, and catchy, with moments of Replacements recklessness. It’s sometimes a little quirky but in the best way not unlike pop masters Stephen Merritt, Elvis Costello or Ray Davies.

Sorry State Records.
