The Story
The 13th studio album from Old 97's arose from what vocalist/guitarist Rhett Miller refers to as a "de-evolution". "As much as I want us to calm down and grow up, the songs that felt right for this record were mostly big and loud and brutal and dirty." - Produced by Tucker Martine and featuring appearances from Peter Buck (R.E.M.) and Scott McCaughey (The Minus 5) -American Primitive is gloriously rowdy, revealing a band more attuned than ever to the raw, reckless energy of timeless rock-and-roll
