The Bottle Rockets have been making some of the most incisive, literate & lighter-raising American music for years. And, some of the loudest! But that only speaks to part of their story. Pulling from all eras of their acclaimed catalog, Not So Loud re-casts Brox songs with lyrical & rhythmic nuances that will surprise both longtime fans and those who might have dismissed them as "just another bar band." Recorded in an acoustic setting at an old schoolhouse, NSL reveals a body of work steeped in the history of, and fitting easily into, the finest traditions of American folk music.
