Good songs, wimpy production

Review Score: (6/10)
Having owned their three previous albums, and having seen them perform some of the songs from "Three Snakes" in a small Atlanta club (one of the best concerts I've ever seen!) before this album was released, I was expecting more. Most of the songs themselves are good, but the sound on this album is weak, weak, weak. "Nebakanezer" was INCREDIBLE live -- the small club setting I saw them in only enhanced their hard-edged, bluesy sound -- but comes across very thin on the album. If they'd have had the same sound they had on "Southern Harmony" (their best album), this one would have been excellent. These guys need to go back into the studio with someone who can recreate their live sound, which rocks your socks off.
