Review
In the mythical Porter Hall, Tennessee, they don't use fancy recording-studio tools to give singers perfect pitch, and they care more about irrepressible emotion ("I know that she hates me now / And I pray she dies") than soft-soaping sentiment. In other words, they like their music raw, raggedy, and honkin', full of spirit and sass. And that's what you get on this memorable debut from the group by the same name as this nonexistent town, which sounds like the crossroads of Porter (Wagoner) and (Tom T.) Hall, but was actually inspired by a character in the movie Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. It figures, considering the goings on in the songs--an "angel" leaves her drunken mate "face down," a perpetual loser moans of getting "Screwed Blue," and a couple goes nine rounds in record time ("Your eyes they fill with whiskey-black hate / I would leave but you are my date"). The mix is so screwy that the drums nearly drown out the electric guitar, and singers Molly Conley and Gary Roadarmel sound as if they recorded their parts in a tool shed. But heck, that's part of the fun. Visit Porter Hall, Tennessee, now, before all the tour buses come. --Alanna Nash
