The progressive nature of their music is leading them more into an alt country genre.

(Was at the Fiery Furnaces instead.) I have to say I was quite surprised when I saw this statement in your review: "Alt Country has made its way around to the masses again with bands such as The Brian Jonestown Massacre" As a long-time fan of BJM, this is the first time I've seen anyone refer to them as being "alt-country". I guess it all depends on what your definition of alt-country but I'd classify BJM more as "psychedelic rock", if I had to slap a label on it.
