Amazing.

This band made it big in the 90′s with their hit, ‘Hard to Handle.’  After several more albums, along with most of their band being changed, Before the Frost… has arrived, and it’s hit hard.  They have done a great job at making a dynamic album from their opening track ‘Good Morning Captain,’ to my favorite ‘Kept My Soul.’

Don’t write this band off because they are ‘too popular,’ or because they may have been overplayed in the 90′s.  The Black Crowes have matured as a band, and I believe this is their best album yet.  I look forward to seeing how they follow such a great album.

I hate half marks, so this album is going to receive a 4/5.  But take note, it just barely falls short of a 5.

Rating: 4/5
