Sounds LikePraise for Kasey Anderson

"[The Reckoning] delivers on the promise of 2004's Eric Ambel-produced Dead Roses -- and then some. A versatile and confident songwriter and singer, Anderson nails these hard-luck tales with grit and gumption."
No Depression

"[Anderson is] a literate working man’s poet... and songs like “Don’t Look Back” and “For St. Ann’s” are surrealistic, visionary ballads..."
Paste

"[Anderson's] gravelly voice and insightful songwriting lift his down-and-out characters out of the ordinary and into the realm of legend."
The Stranger

"[Anderson] is distilling down his ideas, refining his craft and making exceptional, emotionally taut music."
Miles of Music

"[The Reckoning] is a rough, visceral collection of songs that rip through a personal landscape of love and loss."
The Chicago Sun-Times

"An emerging and fascinating voice..."
Copper Press

"[Anderson] is equally at home with introspective ballads as he is with political dirges..."
The Onion A.V. Club

"[Anderson] is one to watch in the alt.country scene."
Punk Planet

"Anderson's doleful Americana is the melancholy sound of gravel roads and broken-down love."
The San Francisco Examiner

"[Anderson is] one of those extraordinary brands of songwriters that stop and touch the hearts of all Americans and even rouse some to pick up the guitar."
Performer Magazine

"The Reckoning is a masterpiece."
Tone

"Anderson’s ability to write masterful songs of political, romantic, and carefree impressional tones is a skill that remains difficult to rival."
Obscure Sound

"[The Reckoning] is a must-hear...it's full of crackle and buzz..."
The Albany Times Union

"The Reckoning is - quite simply - stunning."
The Portland Tribune

"[The Reckoning is] an album of rare organic beauty..."
The Cascadia Weekly

"[Anderson] is a talent that deserves to be heard."
The Missoula Indpendent

"[The Reckoning] does the rough alt.country sound proud."
Songs:Illinois

***Matt Ryan of The Village Voice listed Dead Roses as the 5 Album of 2004 in the Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll.***

Have you been reading the Prius blog on the Times site? Fantastic:

Mr. Lentz came to the conclusion that Toyota should create a separate Prius brand after a failed effort to create a brand around hybrid synergy drive, the system that is in hybrid models sold by Toyota and Lexus. Toyota has run TV commercials and magazine ads explaining the system, both in the United States and around the world.

But consumers just didn’t latch on to that idea. Instead, “they’ve latched onto the Prius,” he said. “We have to go with what they want.

Well, after ten years of working nearly five hours a day, I'm taking my rightful place at the table of American literary canon. And where are you now? Nowhere, that's where! This bullet train cannot be stopped, and you don't have a ticket! Not now. Not ever. Up yours, wadbutts! I've won! You can suck my big fat best-selling dick!

Laugh it up, bro. Laugh it up. I can't wait 'till I SMOKE you at the Crossword Challenge. I have a feeling you'll end up with one that deals mainly in the names of obscure Oregon towns. I think we both know how you'll fare.

I went to sunset the other day and thought about the first time you called me the couch and lummox and that made me remember how much I got made fun of.

What a great job!
