"Ox's follow-up to 'DUST BOWL REVIVAL' sees singer-songwriter Mark Browning gaining confidence as his elegant, breaking voice weaves through songs that unashamedly that the alt out of alt-country. an intimate and emotional record.
"RM, London Line, LONDON, UK "Parched, weary, aching, and rough-eged Americana recalling Neil Young, Wilco, and Springsteen... Passionate and deliberately imperfect rock and roll evoking the desperation of the Dust Bowl, but never forgeting that a new start is as close as the nearest highway."CMJ Weekly, NEW YORK, NY "With a voice broken, weary and elegant, Vancouver songman Ox (aka mark browning) plys a sensitive but scuffed, delicate but twisted variant on the cracked alt-country thing... He is a significant talent. The remarkable debut is a collection of sunshine'n'sorrow-soaked songs to swell the heart and chafe the soul." Ross Fortune, Time Out, LONDON, UK
"Ox, who did an evocative cover of cheap Trick's Surrender on the Loose compilation, are a 4-piece from Canada (their indie debut pushed Radiohead off the top of the college charts there). This lovely, skeletal follow-up feels more like a solo album- Mark Browning's clear, lonely voice given subtle if any, accompaniment. You'll hear echoes of Niel Young, Willie Nelson, and even Woody Guthrie."
