Great album, best I've bought in a while
, July 27, 2001Reviewer: Mike - See all Mike's reviews -
nice follow up to "...solitaire".
, November 24, 1999Reviewer: Eric - See all Eric's reviewsalthough i like "cheating at solitaire better", this album's alright. it's nice to see 'i fought the law' on a studio effort and i like the "honky-tonk" version of 'ball and chain'. i saw mike ness perform both of these songs in chicago at the park west(which is a most kick-ass venue!!!), and they were awesome! i can't comment too much on the other tracks; not being familiar with the older country/folk music, but he gives them a more raw and contemporary feel that probably appeals more to his die-hard fans. i think the big reason i am a fan of his is because right now, he's doing what he loves and he's playing the music he grew up with. he's living out a dream. it makes us all a little more hopeful about our own dreams and aspirations! ...

Pro Reviews: Under the Influences
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews As lead singer and songwriter of punk mainstays Social Distortion for the past 21 years, Mike Ness always possessed an innate understanding of the connection between punk and country. Social Distortion's music has always been thrashy and twangy, a marriage furthered by Ness' self-destructive past and rockabilly personal style. Cheating at Solitaire), Under the Influences showcases Ness' love of roots music with a collection of tunes originally written by legends such as Hank Williams Sr., Marty Robbins, and Carl Perkins. The arrangements include traditional fiddles and autoharps, but it's tempered by buzzy guitars for a nice contemporary mix. With repeated listens, Ness' voice seems monotonous compared to the pure country croon of the original artists. But covers are all about interpretation, and what Ness lacks in vocal finesse he makes up for with feeling. These tales of heartache and regret are ideally suited to him and beloved by him. - Theresa E. LaVeck, All Music Guide |
