The simple fact is that the Rockets have been making some of the most incisive, hip and eclectic American music on the scene for over a decade now. Long known amongst folks with good taste (and longtime Bloodshot faves), the Bottle Rockets have spent their career raising dust and raising lighters with their spot on and literate anthems of the ordinary Joe. They are equally adept at long hair rockers from the rural route, gut-bucket boogies that’d make ZZ Top hang their heads in fraudulent, washed-up shame, or remarkably poetic elegies of loss and displacment.

Look for the newest CD by the Bottle Rockets, Zoysia June 6th, on Bloodshot Records.
