NY's Slackers have captured the power of live performance in the studio. Recording the rhythm tracks while performing live in one of their favorite venues - Ernesto's in Sittard, Holland - The Slackers then overdubbed vocals, horns, and guest spots in the studio. Combining the clarity and balance of a studio record with the spirit and fever they've generated live onstage across the globe, "Peculiar" showcases a band at the height of their powers after nearly fifteen years of constant touring. With an amazing batch of new tracks, alongside the familiar social and political songs, The Slackers have made the album of their career; one that'll both satisfy and surprise their rabid fan base. For fans of Rancid and Flogging Molly, Gogol Bordello, The Skatalites, and The Clash.
