Yawpers - American Man (CD)

American Man from Denver's The Yawpers taps into the disparate, murky pools of the American musical lexicon; dark country to kinetic punk, acid blues to flared jeans boogie, low-brow backdrops pitted against high-minded literary references. It's an edgy, engrossing trip. ""Populist lyrical themes of golden era folk-Americana are contrasted beautifully against the majestic rhythms of heavy metal and punk."" - NO DEPRESSION

The Yawpers planted their flag at the intersection of the delta, the dive bar, and the mosh pit. We're proud to drag their most feral albums back to the turntable.American Man, produced by Cracker's Johnny Hickman, is ""part blues, part rock, part folk, all slathered with early 80s punk attitude"" and ""a success on every level"" according to the geniuses at American Songwriter. We're not arguing and you have no right to, either. This one's earned our esteemed Barrel Select designation, pressed on Bloodshot-Red vinyl.These records aren't just artifacts of a specific scene; they are honed to a shiv point, designed to cut through the noise of an oversaturated market. Restored and remastered with original posters dropped in for good measure, these are loud, lean, and necessary.
