    Women & Work finds the Memphis band at complete ease with their mix of '70s outlaw country and plenty of punk rock attitude and swagger, making it easily the most consistently solid release in their already enviable cannon of music.

    As in real life, the party songs are more fun than the hangover.

    Women & Work has more of bar-band feel-granted, a really good bar band, but something generic is creeping into Lucero's sound.

    Chocked with perspectives, inexpensive times and homegrown storytelling, Women & Work is the perfect album for when you're on your way to a family reunion and hoping your country family will be appreciative of your taste in music.

    By draining the grunge and punk influences from their sound and then over-producing every single song, Lucero have effectively become every Southern rock, blues-inspired bar band you've ever heard.
