{"product_id":"sidelong","title":"Sidelong","description":"\u003cp\u003eNorth Carolina's Sarah Shook sings with a conviction and hard honesty sorely missing in much of today's Americana landscape. Rowdy punk rock insolence to the right, a bottle in a bag; organic three chords and the truth frankness to the left. Always passionate, at times profane, Sarah stalks\/walks the line between vulnerable and menacing, her voice strong and uneasy, country classic but with contemporary, earthy tension. Writing with blunt urgency - so refreshing these days it's almost startling - Sarah's lyrics are in turn smart, funny, mean, and above all, uncompromising. Sly turns of phrase so spot on they feel as true as a hymn. Anger that's as confrontational as it is concise. Humour that's as wry and resigned as a park bench prophet. Meanwhile, the Disarmers hit all the sweet spots from Nashville's Lower Broad to Bakersfield and take Sarah's unflinching tales out for some late-night kicks. At times it's as simple and muscular as Luther Perkins' boom-chicka-boom or as downtown as Johnny Thunders. From the indie-rock snarl in 'Heal Me' to the big sky horizon of a Cormac McCarthy western in 'No Name,' the Disarmers keep it in the pocket, tight and tough. Sidelong is a record that will make you sit up and notice. This is a new voice for a new country.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloodshot","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50485228077387,"sku":"1010855","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/5045ebb9-ebc9-49c8-aeea-3c486f4b3408_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727597446","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/sidelong","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
