M.O.R.

M.O.R.

2007 album from the UK outfit. They are Alabama 3, nine rough and ever-ready souls from Brixton, London and beyond, and they are back to steal your children. MOR is the name of the album, as eclectic and rich a mix of musical styles as you could ever hope to hear - there is Blues, Country, Reggae, Rap and more - and for no other reason than a need for truth, let US call it their best album since their classic debut, 1997's Exile on Cold harbor Lane. The Alabama 3 have been called, amongst other things, "the best live band in Britain." Their music has graced everything from the Sopranos to the Simpsons, and celebrity fans include Irvine Welsh and the world's biggest selling author, Stephen King. They are undoubtedly the greatest American act the UK ever did produce, and their heady combination of Techno and C&W, alongside a proclivity for Rock 'N' Roll decadence and an acute social conscience means that they are effectively a unique entity in modern music. One Little Indian.
