The Mountain Movers are from Conneticut, USA and this LP is released on
Saftey Meeting Records in the USA. In Europe the release has been picked up by
Fortuna Pop. 'We've Walked in Hell and There is Life After Death' is the bands debut release. It's a nice blend of alt country and indie pop. It's undeniably an American sound. But there are nice touches throughout the LP and the inclusion of brass on the record lends it a slightly different charm, maybe recalling a less wired Ryan Adams. There seems to be a theme running through the songs on the LP - with 4 songs managing to get the word 'Devil' into the title. Elsewhere we have songs called 'Afterlife' and songs referencing grave stones. Indeed the cover features all manner of gravestones. A concept LP? Lord knows - I've not paid the lyrics that much attention. Either way, this is a nice little LP.
It's a concept lp in that all of the songs are about the afterlife: in this case, hell; there's another album Dan's written about heaven as a companion piece...maybe one day that will come out. I do hope so, as this album (out first week in February 2008) is one of the greatest albums of our age. Seriously.
I am looking forward to see this new Dan's album
