"Sacred Cow Sessions"
(2002)

Post-modern folkie bard McDaeth sets his jaundiced American tales against a babbling background of film and television dialogue, an oft-used device (remember Pink Floyd's The Wall?) that adds little more than distraction here. Michael's raspy croak falls somewhere between young Tom Waits and old Dylan, which lends his tunes a certain gravitas, but on balance, this Cow tips toward style over substance. Nevertheless, McDaeth remains an artist to watch; check out his previous release, Gondwanaland (2001), to hear why.
