The follow up is much better than the first album. It's still Jack White's band, so Kosmo will likely be a little disappointed, but the sound is a lot "fuller" than Broken Boy Soldiers. Plenty of horns, organs, fiddles, and lots of guitar. They still have that '60s-'70s sound, but it's not so easy to pigeonhole. A couple of songs come off like Blind Faith; the keyboards hit some Deep Purple notes; the fiddles add a touch of country, etc... They may still be aping some classic rock bands, but they are better bands than Bad Company.
