New, Unplayed (These Did Not Come Sealed) 2015 Original Featuring The Rare Car Cover Art. "Third Record, Same As The First: Once Again Peter Buck Taps Into Garage Gunk, Three-Chord Ravers, And Weirdo Folk-Psychedelia, All Of Which Would Find A Home During The Graveyard Shift On College Radio. Buck's Execution Is A Bit Sharper On Warzone Earth Than It Was On 2012's Eponymous Debut, An Impression Somewhat Strengthened By How The Record Is Essentially Divided In Two, Containing One Noisier Half And A Spookier Side. Even With This (Extremely) Loose Division, Much Of The Album's Charm Derives From Its Messiness: Buck Remains Devoted To All The Wild, Odd Sounds That Started To Fade Around The Time "Losing My Religion" Made His Band A Household Name. Alternating Between Giddy Throwaways And Songs Where Their Evident Craft Is Passed Off As Incidental, Warzone Earth Isn't Meant As Anything But A Good Little Record -- Something Seemingly Knocked Off In A Couple Of Sessions And Meant To Be Consumed With A Couple Of Six-packs -- But That Modesty Remains Endearing Because It Has A Human, Soulful Raggedness That Resonates."
