4.0 out of 5 stars what rock 'n' roll is suppose to do, August 11, 2005

Maybe it's because all their songs remind me of when I got in a fight, got drunk, fell down, fell in love, fell outta love, wore a leather jacket, looked at books on motorcycles, enlisted, traveled the south, moved to California, got a tattoo, bought a guitar, smoked cigarettes, had whiskey for breakfast, ate desert lizard and watched the road to nowhere unfold in front of me. Or maybe it's because these guys sound like ZZ Top's first album on every one of their albums. Whatever it may be, it's what good
rock n roll is suppose to do: Rock, and remind me of all the good things I've done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Straight up Southern Rock., May 8, 2006

This review is from: Nobody's Darlings (Audio CD)

Lucero never lets a man down. Whether I am driving to nowhere or drinking myself retarded, these guys provide my soundtrack. I've made an ass of myself so many times to so many girls after getting drunk and listening to this CD. If you get a chance to see these guys live, do what you can to take it. Not to be missed. They played a 2 1/2 hour set last time I saw them. There isn't a harder working band out there right now.

5.0 out of 5 stars The winning streak continues for this underrated band, August 3, 2005

Can these guys do no wrong?

Four and a half stars. As they evolve more toward raw rock and away from their country leanings, Lucero return with another ass kicking album of raucous rockers and beer-soaked ballads. Nichols communicates longing and heartache with a gravelly force of nature voice that makes you almost smell the alcohol on his breath.

Not as great as their last two, but as great as their first eponymous album.

This is real music made by real artists. Nichols' gift for penning melody combined with the band's muscular delivery continues to astound.

Keep it up fellas. You guys deserve to be famous.
