Description: RANK AND FILE – SUNDOWN LP 33 RPM VINYL Rank and File offers their own distinct mixture of punk rock and classic country with their superb debut album, Sundown. Led by Tony Kinman and Chip Kinman, brothers who previously fronted the leftist punk band theDils, and featuring Alejandro Escovedo on guitar, Rank and File had more than enough rock credibility tosatisfy anyone, but on this album, their punk side makes its presence clear mostly in their lean, stripped-downarrangements and their lyrical stance, which embraces working-class rage, bohemian fashion victims, and theplight of illegal aliens along with the more traditional country concerns of love and heartache. There isn't a notewasted in Chip and Alejandro's flinty but resonant guitar work, and Tony and Slim Evans are an equally efficientand rock-solid rhythm section (the dramatic dynamics and the use of empty space in the arrangements alsosuggests these guys had been listening to more than a little dub reggae, especially on "Coyote" and the titlecut). If Rank and File were a few years early for the alt-country scene, they certainly anticipated its musicaland social values on Sundown -- and made a great little record in the process.
