Review

Like their musical predecessors the Band, the Sadies are a Canadian combo steeped in Americana. These guys, though, apparently spent as much time listening to Sergio Leone soundtracks as they did to Hank Williams records. The Sadies--brothers Dallas and Travis Good, who both sing and play guitar; drummer Mike Belitsky; and bassist Sean Dean--have a distinctive sound that hasn't varied much across three albums, and their fourth effort doesn't stray from the formula. But why mess with a good thing? Stories Often Told contains their patented mixture of reverb-heavy instrumentals ("Lay Down Your Arms," "A#1"), Stonesish country blues ("Within a Stone"), Byrdsy country-rock ("Such a Little Word"), garage rock ("Tiger Tiger"), and '60s psychedelia ("Of Our Land"). The Good brothers' mom, Margaret, even lends her voice to "A Steep Climb," a spooky little duet that sounds like something from an unfilmed David Lynch movie. --David Hill
