Rumble Shake And Tumble

Wagons

Melbourne band Wagons’ fifth album Rumble, Shake and Tumble sees the full technicolour spectrum of their thumping, outlaw country rock inspired vision fully realised, and it’s rattling every Vegas floor-board in its wake.

“It’s a record that’s come out of a time where I’ve been through turbulent times it’s called Rumble Shake and Tumble’ for a reason. I’ve been shaken around and bruised, but in the best possible way,” explains frontman Henry Wagons.

Even more than its predecessors, this album holds itself with an epic assuredness reminiscent of the most classic outlaw country performers. It casts a wide net across the outermost boundaries of Americana inspired music and is painted with a brash and at times unexpected brushstroke, all deliv-ered with a certain Wagons mischievousness all their own. There is truly no other Australian band with a sound and spirit like Wagons.

Review

The wild and wonderful Wagons roll on. These local purveyors of outlaw country rock are somewhat of a live institution these days and anyone who has seen them live will testify that their reputation as supreme entertainers is well deserved. Much of this can be attributed to the charisma and laconic humor of frontman Henry Wagons whose darkly witty lyrics and onstage banter have become the stuff of legend.

Album number five sees the band plough new sonic territory while never sacrificing the elements that have endeared them to so many. Producer Cornel Wilczek has added new layers to their sound, most evident on closing track ‘Marylou’, which is awash with instrumentation and effects. Giddy up!
