Reviews In Brief
"Destroyers of the Soft Life" is a bit of
a misnomer. For a J Roddy album this one is a bit soft. The riffs are
sanded down and there is none of that piano driven bar band thumping
that their earlier releases possess. It's very middle of the road and it
just fades away in the background instead of demanding you to take
notice. And when you are forcing yourself to take notice it usually ends
up not being worth the effort. As a fan I won't quit on J Roddy but
this one is a pass to me.
