    Although I have not heard every one of Loudon's albums, this one made me think he has lost his muse or he isn't even trying anymore. It's hard for me to believe that he liked these songs.

    Here Come the Choppers may not win the songwriter many new fans, but because of its consistency and terminal uniqueness, it will certainly keep his fan base coming back for more.

    Wainwright may still be a pacifist; he's a clever enough lyricist to give to give his words more than one meaning, but he's outwardly aggressive whether his subject is war, family, love, or contemporary society.

    [He] strikes a balance between unexpected elegance and verbosity.
