The Brothers Robinson have been getting along so well, they wasted no time getting back into the studio. Almost two years to the day since their reunion album was released, The Black Crowes have released "A Pound Of Feathers." It sounds like The Black Crowes. As a matter of fact, it sounds almost exactly like the last record, "Happiness Bastards." The boys stuck to the template, and I am not complaining.
If you are fan, there is plenty to love here. If you're not, I don't imagine this record will change your mind. Still, I write about these guys because I love these guys. They remain one of my favorite live acts of all time and I'm thrilled that they are back in the game.
Take a listen to a couple of my faves from "A Pound Of Feathers.

Nice guitar. Is Rich Robinson the lead guitarist?
I'm enjoying the new record as well. The only song that doesn't appeal to me is the last one; Doomsday Doggrel
Gracias por los Black Crowes, este proximo verano tocaran en madrid.
Like most of their records, I've got to keep playing it (four times in, now) until it'll click. I hear lots of Three Snakes and By Your Side in these songs.
I like this a lot. Exactly what I want in a Black Crowes album.
Rich played all of the guitars on this ablum
Holy hell does that sound mighty. Wow! I hear so little straight-up guitar rock like this these days - with a funky edge. This record deserves to be huge - thank you as always for cluing us (or at least me!) into new music, Sal. I read a lot about it, but hearing a bit of it - with your commentary - helps a lot.
Sounds just like them! ;) Love it.
I'm with you, as usual!
Those rock, with a lot of great air guitar riffs!
