## Description

Consummate roots rockers Railroad Earth have confirmed the October 12 release of their first album for One Haven Music. The self-titled album was produced by Angelo Montrone in association with Michael Caplan (The Allman Brothers Band, Los Lonely Boys, Keb' Mo'). 'Railroad Earth' is the band's most diverse collection to date, with nine new exquisitely-crafted songs that range from rousing ballads and string band funk to wistful waltzes and quirky time signature folk.Always at the forefront, though, is singer and songwriter Todd Sheaffer, whose aching vocals and evocative lyrics anchor the band. On 'Potter's Field,' his plain-spoken lyrics and earthy arrangements recall the panoramic storytelling of The Band, while album opener 'Long Walk Home' brings to mind the heartfelt soul searching of Wilco. 'On The Banks' displays Schaffer's raw emotive power in the quiet humility of his lyrics.

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2010*

To me Todd Sheaffer is one of the great unsung song writers of our times. Railroad Earth was a great acoustic/folk/bluegrass band. Here Todd's songs are frame in more rock element, with the big exception "Day in the Sand" which is just him acoustic on a nice touching song. The John Skehan instrumental "Spring-Heeled Jack" sounds less Celtic here than live. At times Carey Harmon's drums are put out in the front, "On the Banks" sounds better if you turn down the left channel, but his drumming has always been about serving the song in perfect subtle ways not about being the man out front.The songs are good, very good. "Jupiter" is excellent, "Potter's Field" and "On the Banks" aren't far behind.  They are great musicians. Todd's voice is a in top form. That mix makes for a solid album alone. The production, clean, and wonderfully engineered, attempts to make it sound like a rock or pop album and that makes for a really strong collection of songs you wish was recorded back in Todd's barn not in some fancy studio. "Black Elk Speaks" here is a loud song, with distorted guitars and aims to be a alternative rock number, as an acoustic song this is a great number. This will get many listens, all the songs are worthy additions to the RRE catalog and I'm sure I'll get use the production, but the I recommend every one of their previous albums before this one.

    This album sounds amazing on vinyl
  

*by A***1 on Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2012*

The value of this vinyl is insane, and it even includes the CD. Luckily, the music is really awesome too. I saw these guys at Red Rocks this past summer, and was really blown away by now good they sounded. They've really achieved a perfect blend of sonic excellence, and this album is their best so far on that level. There's not a bad song on this album, but I suppose some fans might prefer a straighter bluegrass sound. I love how some of these tracks have a great aggressive groove, Jupiter & The 119 being the best song with a really catchy beat. It certainly seems to me like the percussion on this album is the best out of any of them. The next song, Black Elk Speaks, really winds an amazing trail and has some truly amazing lead and background vocals.I can't stop listening to this album, and I'd be willing to bet I won't get sick of it anytime soon. This is the sort of recording that has staying power. It's pretty much the antithesis of pop, but it still has some really memorable moments.Anyone who's a freak for vinyl needs to pick this up.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not your father's bluegrass
  

*by S***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2010*

Closer to the country-rock of Willie Nelson, this album is a bit of a departure from the bluegrass RRE has been known for. It's good, but not quite up to par with Bird in the House or Elko, which is a masterpiece. Still, if you're a Railroad Earth fan, this is a good addition to your collection. I was disappointed, though, that even though the vinyl edition is two discs, the sleeve was not a gatefold. Including the CD version with it was a nice bonus.
