Album Review: Greg Graffin - Millport

"Ten heartfelt tunes that bring to mind some of Bad Religion's most passionate moments."

More Greg Graffin Greg Graffin Profile

The fact that punk rock supremo Greg Graffin would release a roots/country rock album isn't such a strange idea.

The guy loves Christmas carols and his Cold As The Clay LP is a love letter to American folk. Now, with Bad Religion co-conspirator Brett Gurewitz and the rhythm section for Social Distortion, Graffin unleashes ten heartfelt tunes that bring to mind some of Bad Religion's most passionate moments (say, Sorrow). This won't be for everyone, but really, the likes of Lincoln's Funeral Train aren't a million miles away from Social Distortion's country pretensions, and Graffin's vocals are superb as usual.
