X
Smoke and Fiction
(Fat Possum Records)
Proof that in music, the aging process is not a necessary factor. In fact, the only thing that tempers the spirit of '77 is experience wise enough to avoid indulgence. Voices sweep and swoop, slap-crack beats are irresistable, Billy's guitar blasts and side-swipes, and all is good for 28:40. This is said to be X's final disc. That would be so wrong.
Recommended: "Ruby Church," "Sweet Til the Bitter End," "The Way It Is," "Flipside," "Big Black X," "Smoke and Fiction," "Struggle," "Winding Up the Time," "Face In the Moon," "Baby and All"
