Dec 8, 2010Northern Aggression rocks as ferociously as anything Wynn has ever done.
-
Dec 8, 2010L.A.'s veteran indie rocker is on a tear in his third outing with the up-for-anything Miracle 3 - guitarist Jason Victor, drummer Linda Pitmon and bassist Dave DeCastro - fusing Wynn's penchant for Americana rock, psychedelia, brutal punk and extended jams into an intriguingly seductive blend.
-
Dec 8, 2010The album is not only perfectly balanced; it stands out as a bright (black) light amid the dross of postmillennial rock.
-
Apr 13, 2011Northern Aggression, made with his long-running Miracle 3, is a new peak in that hard-boiled moral aggression.
-
Dec 8, 2010Scrapbook glories like Dream Syndicate's The Days of Wine and Roses drowned his songs in raw noise, but as many singers do in middle age, Wynn has achieved balance along with his new riffs. Let's hope he finds some more down in his basement for the follow-up.

MojoApr 4, 2011Alongside The Miracle 3's rich, roughneck guitar grind, Wynn's odd perspective gathers strength on two songs that involve gatecrashing private homes or events. [Feb 2011, p.107]

Dec 8, 2010Those who hoped Wynn would bring that inventive spirit and boldness back to his band for its third album will be disappointed: Northern Aggression is almost surprising in its straightforwardness.
