Features:

"a rockin' slab of cosmic country boogie that makes Commander Cody sound like Brad Paisley. It's dense, fuzzy, and dripping in an ominously psychedelic reverb" -Village Voice

"Folk, Country and Rockabilly wells mined and harnessed to yield Some Forgotten Country, an album of home-recordings as metaphysical western, a handful of cover tunes as respectful homage, songs as well-oiled chants" -Stylus Magazine Interview

"Shuford's romps channel both dusty open spaces and cramped dim places, scars and bars from the Deep South and Old West." -Dusted: Listed

Reviews:

Distillation

"some boogie rock of the highest water" -RCRDLBL.COM

Madagascar 7"

"I used to have a shirt what said, 'Big Pink Was Not A Myth' & here you's got more proof for the pudding." -Siltblog

"Speer & Co.’s flailing tempest of sass is red-carpet treatment for ears fried by twang" -Leo Weekly

After Hours

"But even when it shares more with No Wave than No Depression, After Hours makes you think that maybe the odd stuff was buried in the ancient songs all along..." -Pitchfork

"Singer-guitarist Dave Shuford possesses a deep, woodsy baritone and the confident intonation of a master storyteller." -Time Out New York

"the kind of psychedelic Bakersfield stew you always hope you’ll be lucky enough to procure from one of our nation’s truck stops" -Your Flesh

"a kitsch-free wallop of genuine, if not flat-out devastating, country-rock songwriting" -Dusted

Some Forgotten Country

"Currently living in New York and calling himself D. Charles Speer, the baritone has returned, bringing the total musician back to life." -SF Weekly

"Shuford’s strongest efforts, however, are saved for the psychedelic-laced bluegrass of “Stingray Leather” and “Furze,” as the ghosts at the Armadillo World Headquarters smile a wide grin to hear mandolin alongside blistering guitars." -Tiny Mix Tapes

"an ecstatic marriage of Appalachia luster and convex psychedelia."
-Stylus

"there seems to be no one he ain't heard what hasn't seeped into his encyclopedic cranium. Ably separatin the wheat from the chafe, 'Some Forgotten Country' has been nothin short of a Goddamn pleasure to listen to on every spin." -Siltblog

Past or Beyond 7"

"The B side is heavier, both aurally and lyrically. Biblical sacrifice references intertwined with screeches and the over tone of building the walls of Jericho out of children. Lonesome traveler silkscreened sleeves top off the wrangler feel. A definite must for anyone proud to be an American."
-Foxy Digitalis
