CHRIS SHIFLETT & THE DEAD PEASANTS Chris Shiflett & The Dead Peasants (2010 Japanese issue 9-track promo sample CD album issued to radio stations and reviewers ahead of the release date. This debut self-titled album from the Foo Fighters guitarist is steeped in his love for classic country artists [Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings], rockabilly [Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran] & deep-rooted rock bands [The Rolling Stones, The Replacements] and highlights his talent and versatility not onlyas a skillful guitarist, but also as a songwriter. These infectious Americana-laced rock songs are some of the best he's penned, from the chiming keys and buoyant, ringing guitars of 'Get Along' to the pedal steel - and mandolin-lined heartache of 'Bandaged', and from the spry, Old 97s-ian 'Baby, Let It Out' to the rueful country swing of 'Death March'. The disc has a custom-stamped inner and comes with the promo stickered back insert, complete with picture sleeve, Japanese lyric insert & obi-strip! SICP 2834)
