  • Perhaps it's appropriate that the Bad Livers scaled back their punk influences and played up their traditional bluegrass roots when they moved to Sugar Hill Records for Hogs on the Highway. After all, the label is one of America's best independent country/bluegrass labels, so the group would have to clean up its act somewhat to fit in with the crowd. Fortunately, they haven't cleaned up too much, and Hogs on the Highway is a stomping, infectious collection of twisted newgrass, informed by punk energy but in the style of traditional bluegrass. ~ Thom Owens
