On Tin Cast Trust, Los Lobos prove that tough times don't last, but tough music does, and those are words we can all live by.
-
The title-track is a prime example of the album's dominant pace: downbeat and sluggish.
-
A job well done.
-
The barrio strivers throughout Trust are as vivid now as they were decades ago.
-
Make no mistake, the storytelling is detailed and the musicianship is precession-sharp, but dotted with faithful Spanish-language takes on cumbia and Norteno styles, and one unnecessary blues-jam interlude, Tin Can Trust ultimately eases into traditionalism.
-
It's the record of a band who have plenty of experience, a good track record and know what makes a good album.
-
This is much more about capturing their inimitable onstage chemistry with sizzling fuzz guitar solos, unexpected fusions of styles and the kind of relaxed confidence that only comes with this kind of history.
-
Listening to a Los Lobos album is a bit like walking down the streets of a neighborhood, with a different kind of music spilling out of every doorway.
-
Tin Can Trust is more of a straight-ahead rock record, relaxed in approach and spirited in performance.
-
It's an album about facing limitations, drawing what hope there is from seeing each situation clearly.
-
UncutTin Can Trust is a masterful album from an undeniably great American band, at the peak of its considerable powerers. [Sep 2010, p.88]
