The Coathangers reckless energy from their half-serious roots is every bit as vibrant and rambunctious on their 2011 album, Larceny & Old Lace. But this time around we're hearing a band that's honed their trade and incorporated more stylistic variations. With this broadened artistic horizon, refinement of technique, and Ed Rawls' production allowing every instrument to shine without detracting from the band's natural grit, The Coathangers' 2011 offering is easily their best record to date. Join the party.
