Michael Waddoups fumes over lack of radioactive waste oversight
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News archives
SALT LAKE CITY — Utah Senate President Michael Waddoups wondered aloud Tuesday if the state Department of Environmental Quality should be disbanded and its chief radiation control officer fired in the wake of a blistering audit that found little oversight over the radioactive waste buried in Tooele County.
"I almost think that the Department of Environmental Quality should be disbanded and start over from scratch one," said Waddoups, a Republican from Taylorsville. "This is a terrible response" to the legislative audit released Tuesday.
Waddoups said the agency's failure to carry out its regulatory duties is a bungle that eclipses even problems identified in previous audits of the state Department of Alcohol Beverage Control because of the public safety issues involved.
In the aftermath of audits uncovering mismanagement in the alcohol agency, the department was overhauled in a legislative and gubernatorial fix that went into effect this year.
During a Tuesday meeting of the Legislative Audit Subcommittee in which the report's findings were detailed, Waddoups sharply rebuked Department of Environmental Quality Director Amanda Smith, as well as director of the Division of Radiation Control, Rusty Lundberg.
"(Your response) appears to be justifying errors and mistakes that were made," he said.
Performed by the Office of the Legislative Auditor General, the report states that regulators rely too heavily on EnergySolutions to police itself over the kind of radioactive waste buried at its western desert site in Clive, Tooele County, resulting in little assurance that prohibitions on "hotter" waste or foreign waste aren't being violated.
"As the oversight arm for radioactive waste disposal in Utah, the Division of Radiation Control is not exercising sufficient controls to detect radioactive waste banned by Utah statute," the legislative audit stated.
Waddoups said that EnergySolutions is a "good corporate citizen," and it is the division that has fallen down on its job, adding that the division has a "responsibility to do better and do more."
"I think the problem here is the Division of Radiation Control," he said. "You have to tell me, Ms. Smith, why Mr. Lundberg shouldn't be terminated."
The performance audit recommends state regulators go beyond the so-called traditional honor system of the industry self-reporting waste disposal shipments because of Utah's unique ban and its relationship with the private company.
State regulators, however, fired back that while they are willing to institute additional layers of oversight, they don't believe the costs of such a program would make the disposal site any safer than it already is or go beyond the steps it has taken to assure protection of public health.
"The audit recommendations are heavily based on policy implementation, whereas the existing regulatory framework is founded on protecting public health and safety and is fully consistent with other environmental regulatory programs," wrote Lundberg, division director.
But the audit noted that while the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission told auditors the division has the authority to sample incoming waste, regulators have "chosen to not exercise this authority because of the regulatory model they follow."
Instead, the audit stressed, the division "continues to compare itself against other states, federal rules and environmental programs that do not address the unique restrictions that are important to the Utah site."
The audit said the lack of regulatory oversight has fostered an environment that allowed documented instances of waste being accepted by EnergySolutions in violation of state law.

I would say the DN is touting UT growth. Here is an excerpt from a Forbes
"Utah's economy has expanded 3.5% annually over the past five years, faster than any other state except North Dakota. This is three-and-a-half times faster than the U.S. as a whole. Total employment in the U.S. has shrunk over the past five years, but in Utah it increased 1.5% annually, fourth-best in the nation. Household incomes have surged 5% annually, which is tops in the country and twice as fast as the national average."
I would say that UT is doing well.

If anyone here read the FORM 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2012--there was some question about the company's INTERNAL CONTROL.
Actually, every quarterly and annual filing, it seems that they keep promising to remediate the material weaknesses identified in internal control over financial reporting of the Company, and yet they keep receiving SEC notices about non-compliance.
This is actually a muti-million dollar company, and yet it seems like they can't find someone knowledgeable about US GAAP.
It is not just the internal control, there are also questions about the receivables relating to financing service--about their policy and whether or not this follows , etc...
I don't understand why this company just cant' comply. The BALANCE SHEET looks good, compared to most penny stock companies.
They should probably try investing in presenting reliable financial documents just so they could boost investor's confidence.
Otherwise, it's kind of difficult to tell whether or not this company's really doing well.
yea sure there are no accounting issues. market has it all wrong

The weakest spot in every man is where he thinks himself to be the wisest.
Nathaniel Emmons (1745 - 1840)
Contributed by: Zaady
Death stamps the characters and conditions of men for eternity. - As death finds them in this world, so will they be in the next.
How vast is eternity! - It will swallow up all the human race; it will collect all the intelligent universe; it will open scenes and prospects wide enough, great enough, and various enough to fix the attention, and absorb the minds of all intelligent beings forever.
Just definitions either prevent or put an end to disputes.
I could never think well of a man's intellectual or moral character, if he was habitually unfaithful to his appointments.
In reasoning upon moral subjects, we have great occasion for candor, in order to compare circumstances, and weigh arguments with impartiality.
There is not a single spot between Christianity and atheism on which a man can firmly fix his foot.

We weren't invited to the exclusive event this evening. But, as you can see above, we were there in spirit! The winner of our plane-banner contest—and 15 runners-up—below.We received many, many excellent and creative submissions on how best to congratulate Rush on his special day. You went all out and for that we thank you. After much debate, we went with Oryx's suggestion, a very simple message of congratulations for Rush on his special 4th wedding day—as one commenter put it, very likely the 4th happiest day of his life. So why did we go with this one? Well, there were a bunch of considerations. Many of the messages we liked were too controversial for the pilot we hired to fly the banner over Palm Beach. (He lives there and has a business to run, and he was skittish about pissing off everyone in town.) Many others referenced Limbaugh's years-old prescription drug arrest, which seemed like a bit of a cheap shot no matter how clever they were, or how much he might deserve it. There were quite a few good political ones, too, touching on gay marriage and the oil spill. But we'll leave staging protests at weddings to the Westboro Baptist Church. Advertisement In the end, Oryx came up with a simple, straightforward message that made us laugh when we imagined it flying over Rush Limbaugh's wedding. And it was one we think was enjoyed by all who had gathered again to celebrate the sacred, everlasting union between Limbaugh and yet another woman. Well, everyone except this Twitter user. (To ensure no one missed it, we also had the pilot fly over Rush's estate this evening as well.) Thanks to all who participated! For everyone upset that their message wasn't chosen, there's always number 5. Sponsored Here are the 15 entries—in no particular order!—that we selected as runners-up.

people WILL disagree with me about this but Halo and Halo 2 are both pieces of crap. terrible, terrible crap. I didn't like the controls, the story, the multiplayer, thought it was dumb, the weapons didn't feel powerful, characters could have looked better, felt cheap, MasterChief is a loser, MasterChief irritated me, and it was boring. Halo 2, I found didn't fix any of the problems. It's just my thoughts, but I'm me, so they're pretty important to me, The Halo series stinks. If you want a futuristic Action game, get Mech Warrior. great game.

This is an experience not to be missed! Hand feeding my hummingbirds. SOOO cute, so many, buzzing around my head while I held the feeder. Yesterday, they did not even wait for me to hang it, so today I decided to film it. You can click on Full Screen, it will get big (but somewhat blurry)
Miracle Chicken
I will be posting pictures of my miniature work, most of which is shown with an ordinary pencil for size comparison.

Some more paintings for Chicago
I made the frames from cherry, but the paintings are removable if a different frame is desired.
And last this guy is framed but he is packed away so I am posting the painting cropped.
Tuesday, March 8, 2016
more paintings
These are all going to Chicago. They are 2 to 3 inches high. They are still unframed but I thought it was kind of neat to post them this way. I make all my own frames. I've made this little girl's frame, just waiting for her to dry completely.
This one is by the same painter that did the wire haired terrier from the other batch of paintings I posted.
Here is a different cute little terrier,
And last, this woman. I have a couple more I was hoping to do. I still have to make frames and time is running out.

My home grown cherry wood
I've carved another Irish George II tea table but this time I used my own home grown cherry wood.
I speak frequently about the little cherry tree that my neighbor cut down, the one I ate cherries from.
I took the trunk home because I loved the little tree, but I did not know at that time what was inside just waiting to live on. Perfect "in scale" grain and knots and a beautiful coloring.
This photo shows a nice little knot.
It is so fun to cut off a piece of log, mill it down, thickness it and create a miniature piece of furniture!
Saturday, December 12, 2015
Monday, November 16, 2015
I have been busy making tables. I will be taking these to Chicago. This first one is an Irish George II carved tea table circa 1750. (All three tables are 1:12 scale, scratch built, hand carved cherry). Carved knees, ball and claw feet, scallop apron. The real one was made with the shell a separate piece so I did mine that way. I found pictures of this and scaled it down as opposed to finding plans (like below table 2). I took some in progress shots.
Legs cut and mortised.
Dry fit.
Working on the carving.
This next tea table has candle slides and slipper feet.
Here is a blurb that came with the plans. (The plans were of a full sized table which I scaled down to 1:12th.)
"In Colonial America, prior to Paul Revere's famous midnight ride, colonists adopted many of the lifestyles of English citizens. Tea tables came into vogue in the early 1700's."
Some in progress shots:
Here we see the side aprons cut and slotted for the candle slides and supports.
Here the slides and supports are in place. The knee returns are still rough.
Here I've put the two little nails (the full size plans said put 2 brass screws) so the slides aren't pulled all the way out. This was quite the conundrum. Like the mind teaser of the chicken, the corn and the fox. What to take across the river so one does not get eaten. My problem was figuring if you put the nails in, you can't get them in the slots. If you put the fronts on, you can't do the nails. I put the fronts on then I found a way to support the slides while pressing in the nails. The tray top was tricky to make. I coved the strips, then I had to rabbet them. Then I had to make the bead. Last step after the finish was to turn tiny brass knobs.
And last we have this little white French table. Don't have any more info just thought it was interesting. Carved knees and aprons, and I can't for the life of me remember what this style of feet are called!

Little lop bunny
I made this little lop earred bunny. He is hand carved wood, painted, then his fur is applied. A tedious procedure indeed.
I don't name my animals, but this little guy seems to be saying his name is Timmy :)

Lemon tree update
Well I finally have something to report on the little lemon tree. He is in NO hurry to grow up! In October, he will be 3 years old. It took 2 months to poke his little head out of the dirt. I was giving up and turning off the grow light when I spotted him:
Then it took many weeks for this:
Then months:
Last winter he had around 6 leaves and lost 3 of them....I thought it was curtains for sure.....
Now, as of today, he is a whole foot tall! Nice rebound my little tree:)

My latest piece
A smooth hair tri-color fox terrier. He is hand carved, painted then fur applied.
With every attention to detail. Even the roof of his mouth it detailed! Toes with nails, paw pads. Very life filled eyes.
Anatomically correct male. Two of the previous three fox terriers I've carved, custom orders of people's dog from their photos, had the one ear up. So I decided to do this one's ears the same.
On ebay this week.
Saturday, August 22, 2015
Big news!
I'm ready to make a big announcement. I'm going to be a dealer in the Chicago International this April! I will have furred animals, accessories, and some furniture. Stop by and say hello :)
Sunday, August 9, 2015
A little kitten
Here is my latest, a little kitten. Carved then furred. He's been startled by a mouse!
A frog comes by to say hello.
I carved and furred the mouse and carved and painted the frog.
Carved toes and little paw pads.

I, Iago (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Nicole Galland is exceptionally well versed in the fine nuances of storytelling. St. Petersburg Times
Galland has an exceptional gift. Neal Stephenson
The critically acclaimed author of The Fool's Tale, Nicole Galland now approaches William Shakespeare's classic drama of jealousy, betrayal, and murder from the opposite side. I, Iago is an ingenious, brilliantly crafted novel that allows one of literature's greatest villains--thedeceitful schemer Iago, from the Bard's immortal tragedy, Othello--totake center stage in order to reveal his "true" motivations. This is Iago as you've never known him, his past and influences breathtakingly illuminated, in a fictional reexamination that explores the eternal question: is true evil the result of nature versus nurture...or something even more complicated?
About the Author
Nicole Galland's five previous novels are The Fool's Tale; Revenge of the Rose; Crossed; I, Iago, and Godiva. She writes a cheeky etiquette column for the Martha's Vineyard Times. She is married to actor Billy Meleady and owns Leuco, a dog of splendid qualities.
Praise For…
"[A] funny (really!) look at this disastrous Crusade through the eyes of a wacky Welshman, a pious knight and his half-brother and an Arab princess (who isn't what she seems) they hope to return to her Egyptian home. It's a raucous road trip set in the 13th century."
-New York Post
"A tasty fictional stew, mixing elements of twelfth-century culture together skillfully to produce a veritable reading feast . . . .The combination of vicious politics, mysterious doings, betrayals, and double-dealing, added to a leisurely but engaging plot, will keep those pages turning."
"A clever novel of courtly love . . . entertains with a flourish."
-Publishers Weekly
"[A]ttention to detail and humor keeps the novel both exhaustive and hilarious...Nicole Galland is exceptionally well versed in the fine nuances of storytelling and illustrating the combustible nature of mixing religion, commerce and war."
-St. Petersburg Times (Florida)
"[A]t once an idiot's guide to the tangled geopolitical landscape of 13th century and a clear and stern indictment of contemporary events...Thick with delectable historical details."
-Martha's Vineyard Times on CROSSED
"A wallop of a first novel—entertaining and engaging."
-San Francisco Chronicle on The Fool's Tale
" THE FOOL'S TALE creates a vivid 12th Century world and three unforgettable characters whose lives entwine with war and politics, and climax in an ending as haunting as it is powerful."
-William Dietrich, author of Hadrian's Wall
"An astonishing work of imaginative empathy, buttressed by deep research and enriched by lively storytelling."
-Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize-winning author
"This is a wonderful historical novel that proves that all people see themselves as the hero of their own lives."
-Peter Sagal, host of NPR's Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!
"A convincing portrayal of a tormented, delusional man whose complacted web of deceit destroys everyone around him."
-Library Journal on I, IAGO
"The delights of this book, lushly set in Renaissance Venice, lie in Galland's ability to take a series of tiny mistakes, deceptions and wrong turns and roll them into a juggernaut."
-More magazine on I, IAGO

Lauren Smith's Reviews > Haunted
by Chuck Palahniuk (Goodreads Author)
by Chuck Palahniuk (Goodreads Author)
Lauren Smith's review
bookshelves: unusual-narration, unfinished, horror
Apr 16, 2010
bookshelves: unusual-narration, unfinished, horror
Read in January, 2008
After reading the blurb I thought this sounded like it could be an interesting novel, and I'd wanted to try something by Palahniuk for a while. However, I soon got very tired of his shock tactics and the constant attempts to stimulate my gag reflex rather than just my mind. I dropped it about a third of the way through, and won't ever bother trying to finish.

"One of the best rock bands in South Texas."
"This lot should come with a government health warning."
"Churchwood aren't like anyone else...this group of Austin music scene veterans filters the blues through the demented styles of Captain Beefhart and Tom Waits."
"This record, which hammers massive blues riffs on top of lyrics based in French surrealism, doesn't sound like anyone else."
"Imagine Howlin' Wolf singing "Aranzazu, you there in the briars/ the hounds pursue me and I'm redolent of fire" and you're in Churchwood's area code."
"Austin doesn't have many bands better that Churchwood. Equal parts Howling Wolf and Captain Beefheart, these guys deserve a much wider audience."
"Their sound rises in dense clouds of hard roots, the hollow thump of a leather boot heel on wooden floorboards – dust so deep in the grooves that your needle snaps off. It's white lightning, blue thunder, orange-red brimstone."
"Churchwood's 2 seethes with pent-up tension, sprung by 10 tall tales with titles like, "You Be the Mountain (I'll Be Mohammed)," "Keels Be Damned," "Weedeye," and "Money Shot Man." It's a curious hybrid of beat-poet sensibility and back porch intellectualism."
"Members' résumés include Billysteve Korpi's cult blues punks the Crack Pipes, the virtuoso, post-roots eclecticism of the Invincible Czars (Kahan), and Anderson and Peterson's good old fashioned ATX weirdness, Cat Scientist. Yeow."
"The lyrics [Doerr] writes for Churchwood are a sort of gutter poetry in which French symbolism meets American beats' free verse, stirred up by a bit of a Screaming Jay Hawkins gross-out. He is not the type who wakes up in the morning and looks around for his shoes because he has those mean ol' blues."
"There's certainly nothing else like them on that vaunted Austin scene, and very little else like them in the rest of the world. But they are among the most legit blues-rock bands out there."
"This band does not play "tasty" licks in honor of the great blues originals; this band is — or, rather, appears to be — anarchistic, as well as deranged, abrasive, eerie, feral, maniacal and stunningly literate."
"In all, 2 does what good sophomore records should (but so rarely do): consolidates the strengths of the debut while making inroads into an expanded universe. Excellent."
"Churchwood has enough guitar action to cause Robert Cray to spontaneously combust should he approach within a 13-block radius."
"These guys would've made a great triple bill with Top Jimmy & the Rhythm Pigs and the Gun Club."
"Grungy, growly and gruff, out of focus, rough around the edges - maybe this used to be blues - drunkard's blues."
"Churchwood `'2'' is a model of simplicity all the way from Texas on Saustex Records."
"Churchwood is back, this time with a new full length album, simply entitled Churchwood 2. This Austin, TX band is a wild bunch of snake-eyed rhythm devils. Those who remember their debut album and were wowed by it will be delighted to revel in this one."
"2" is an excellent indication that Churchwood aren't just a two-horse band, but that they have a barn-load of eccentricities.
"Somewhere in between Rev. Horton Heat, Captain Beefheart, a Texas-style Nick Cave as well as The Cramps."
"Moody, mighty, sinister sounds that somehow become roots music by putting some mortar and pestle action to country, rock, jazz, blues, punk, experimental, and whatever it is that Beefheart did on even days. Sly lyrics and ominous vocals make this album enjoyably disconcerting."
"The band...knows its way around blues, roots rock, punk and more, but that doesn't mean Churchwood doesn't relish mixing it all together, shaking it all up and unleashing the result with volume, venom and verve. "
"Blues meets musical anarchy when Churchwood steps up."
"Launching its latest Saustex Records release, 2, Churchwood hypnotizes the Hole in the Wall with Beefheart blues and brain-bent poetry. The cast of local music vets, starring LeRoi Brother Joe Doerr as a lysergic lounge singer and his Hand of Glory bandmate (and Poison 13 standout) Bill Anderson teamed with Crack Pipes six-stringer Billy Steve Korpi, always leave eyes dilated."
"On their sophomore full-length, cleverly entitled Churchwood 2, they ride that pony a little farther down the line...Pick of the litter, and a powerful incentive to see these guys live if you can."
"Money Shot Man" gets some Nawlins spice from the addition of a three-piece horn section, while the closing "New Moon" progresses in fits and starts to shuffle along like an outtake from the first Moby Grape album.
"You Be the Mountain (I'll Be Mohammad)" churns up a welter of funk that hits like an alternate-universe amalgam of Little Feat, Westbound-era Funkadelic, and The Cry of Love.
"Joe Doerr's tortured tonsils and perspicacious pen remain the primary focus, ably abetted by slashing dual guitars and an agile riddim section."
"You won't find many hellhound tales that start off like this: "Aranzazu, you there in the briars/ the hounds pursue me and I'm redolent of fire." But, really, it's the band's intensity, with weird time signatures and nasty guitar riffs, that you'll walk out of a Churchwood show remembering."
"Like the old wooden Baptist church on a country road that gave them their name, Churchwood houses a whole lot of frantic energy during their blues services."
"Gruff, threatening, slightly bizarre, and 110% badass noisemaking."
"Churchwood melds cranky honky-tonk, dirty soul that winks at Jon Spencer, and backporch funk."
"Poison 13 survivor Bill Anderson and Billysteve Korpi of the Crack Pipes are guitarists at odds, yielding triumph and counterpoint in perfectly measured bursts of manic backing for Joe Doerr's inimitable turns of phrase."
"Perhaps the best of the stack is Churchwood's "Just the Two of Us" (Saustex), a freak-blues assault on every soulless bar band playing passable Stevie Ray covers."
"[Churchwood's "Just the Two of Us"] is even rawer and more savage than their eponymous, full-length debut CD."
"On this release, entitled Just the Two of Us, Churchwood comes at you with their brand of full-tilt punk-rock/psychobilly. If you want a comparison, well, think of a cross between The Cramps and The Blasters."
"From the get-go, Churchwood let loose and play like there's no tomorrow, with reckless abandon and fueled-up fervor. But don't let that belie the fact that these cats are intelligent."
"The axe interplay between Bill Anderson and Billysteve Korpi recalls Richard Hell's Voidoids as much as the classic Magic Band tandems."
"Metanoia" features chattering contrapuntal guitars against a steady rhythm, while Doerr commands us to "Siddown and shut your pie hole" with the authority of Mojo Nixon channeling Tom Waits.
"On "Just the Two of Us"... they demonstrate that they have more than a few tricks up their collective sleeve."
"Austin Top Ten for 2011: #5) Churchwood, Churchwood (Saustex)"
"Churchwood plies spiraling avant-blues against absurdist lyrical imagery in a manner that leaves listeners pleasantly off-center."
"You can hear the spirit of Captain Beefheart grunting and snorting all over this auspicious debut."
"Churchwood create a voodoo Blues brew on the self-titled release. In theory, chaos has found a new home."
"Perfect for something like a Coen Brothers film soundtrack."
"Better take a handful of Dramamine before you try on "Supermonisticgnostiphistic" and "Pontiac Flanagan", they are spinners with no care for directional changes."
"Churchwood craft their version of The Blues with broken mirror edges and tight turn angles."
"Dangerous, foreboding, in-your-face."
"Albumet prydes av et røntgen-bilde der en person skyter seg selv i foten. Det ser på ingen måte behagelig ut og er således en treffende (!) refleksjon av den medfarten som bluesen får i Churchwoods hender."
"I dub Churchwood the crazy, thinking man's blues band."
"If Mike Patton ever led a blues band on an impromptu 30-night tour through Louisiana swamp country, the end result might sound something like Churchwood's latest offering."
"Dense and nasty, literate and mean, Austin's Churchwood sounds like Captain Beefheart trying to cut Tom Waits' throat with a rusty harmonica."
"My favorite track, bound for my ipod for repeated listens, is a badass brawler called Pity the Noose. It fits into a little genre of songs I like to call "Bad News" songs, in honor of Johnny Cash's ode to tough sons of bitches."
"With this CD, you get excellent musicianship, great production, whipsmart lyrics full of nearly psychedelic wordplay and even snatches of French and Spanish, as well as dips into a more dark and gritty neighborhood welcome to fans of "traditional" blues."
"A powerful, unique rock record that stings the mind and prods the soul."
"They are dangerous, exciting and their debut album sounds like it fell out of a rock n roll tree, hit every deranged blues branch on the way down and got up spitting and snarling to go spread its mad dog message to the people."
"Even if your notion of what you like about Texas has more to do with Ernest Tubb than Stevie Ray Vaughn, you still may find something to like in the prog blues of CHURCHWOOD."
"Smart, bluesy bar rock."
"Joe Doerr's vocal delivery is what excites me the most. He possesses a fantastic voice for this genre and this band – deep, resonant and with a lot of punch."
"Theatrical and sociopathic, Churchwood swaggers mightily on punch-you-in-face tracks like "Pity the Noose.""
"An evil new twist on blues-rock that takes the music far beyond the too-common Stevie Ray mega-solo blues-jam template."
"CHURCHWOOD!!!! These guys bring it!! Love this fuckin song! Fuck John Lomax fer sayin', in the Houston Press, that Austin doesn't have a scene anymore. Proof positive! Hey Lomax, come see CHURCHWOOD!"
"Equal parts catchy and downright scary."
"Don't let the "church" fool you; this Austin quintet certainly isn't spreading that gospel."
"It's wild and actually wooly, this Austin amalgam of Delta grind, slit-wrist punk and Captain Beefheart-y weird-rock."
"Another winner from Saustex Media."
""Fire," Doerr rails, over a rattling rhythm from bassist Adam Kahan and drummer Julien Peterson, "everything must go" — and you can almost smell the glowing ash."
"Recommended if you like: Capt. Beefheart & the Magic Band, The U-Men, Richard Hell & THe Void-Oids"
"Guitarists Bill Anderson and Billysteve (yep, one word) Korpi turn the blues inside out on Churchwood's "Vendidi Fumar," then wear it around like Lady Gaga's meat dress."
"The heavy rambling guitars are as diverse as the lyrics; you don't learn this in song writing classes."
"Churchwood don't deal in lullabies."
"The drums are from the John Bonham school of kickass while the bass leaves a dirty sonic footprint everywhere it wanders."
"Joe Doerr's vocals do jangle with the bravado of a snake-oil salesman making a pitch to the wide-eyed."
"The members of Churchwood have been performing for well over 20 years, and have given birth to an album that will appease blues enthusiasts without surrendering any crossover appeal for strict rockers."
"These Texans are bloozin' it up because they got something smart and ugly to say — That they seem quite possibly out of their gourd nuts doesn't hurt!"
"Casually weird but ever cognizant of the beat at the heart of the blues, Churchwood sets a new standard for Texas-bred mannish boys."
"Nothing safe here, just music for driving the highways after midnight on a moonless night."
"This is no minstrel show."
"Bill Anderson weaves a web of sinister skronk alongside guitarist Billy Steve Korpi, while vocalist Joe Doerr summons a bellowing Beefheart brogue for the travelogue."
"Cool raw rockers include "Pontiac Flanagan," "Vendidi Fumar," "Can O' Worms," and "Car Crash." Top pick."
"Rude, literate, bilingual, unpredictable, and addictive."
"Jazz-damaged drummer Julien Peterson and busy four-stringer Adam Kahan nail the base of jazz-inflected grooves to the ground while letting the ends flap in the wind."
"Singer Joe Doerr had the fervor of a revival tent preacher, though he wasn't necessarily working from the Good Book."
"These guys are downright literate."
"Melungeon in the Dungeon," "Pity the Noose" and (deep breath) "Supermonisticgnostiphistic" get the manic mojo working.
"Anderson and co-axeman Billysteve Korpi eschew guitar solos and instead weave complementary guitar lines around each other like snakes trying to mate."
"Doerr rides this tiger with a twinkle in his eye and steel wool in his throat."
"Driving rhythms, herky jerky guitar riffs, and raw vocals combine to create a cool whirlwind of infectious alternative bluesy rock energy."
"Wake up, fans of Hermann Hesse and Carlos Santana. There's a song called "Abraxas." This is a spoken-word piece with a bluesy backdrop and a beatnik vibe."
"Churchwood doesn't exactly sound like the Captain on its new self-titled album. It just shares his ability to take the essence of primitive blues and mutate it into something new."
"Our guess is that this self-titled album will appeal equally to older fans as well as college kids."
"On "Ulysses," Churchwood cleverly mixes references to the hero of the Odyssey, the hard-drinking Civil War general, and James Joyce."
"The music is so upbeat and rocking that you get the feeling it's been a pretty fun joyride until the moment of impact."
"This is one rabbit hole you won't mind falling down."
"A tapestry of interlocking, complimentary riffs and jazzy grooves over which Doerr rants and rumbles with his baritone growl."
""Rimbaud Diddley," "Metatonia" and "Lived Ill Weed Eye" would probably baffle the average Stevie Ray Vaughan fan, but they're shots across the bow of a mordant local roots rock scene."
"Despite having two hotshot axe-slingers in the lineup, the music mostly eschews the guitar solos that dominate the Austin blues rock scene."
"Churchwood has their own, original-sounding style — great band, great songwriting and catchy hooks; all ingredients for a sonic delight; indie or otherwise."
"Herky-jerky rhythms, the trebly contrapuntal guitars, the bellowing declamatory vocals — if you're a sucker for that kind of jive like I am, these guys might be _just your meat_."
"Though its members reside in Austin, wiry avant-blues collective Churchwood found its groove near the Dadaland exit off Highway 61."
"Austin's dapper Churchwood played blues rock like a butcher knife: sharp and greasy with the potential to draw blood."
"Bottom line: Churchwood sounds like they'd be a lot of fun to see in a bar. You could even cut a rug to 'em, if you were so inclined."
"A literate and bluesy stew of guitar rock that doesn't sound like anybody else around."
"Critics Poll, Best Local Show: CHURCHWOOD @ The Hole in the Wall"
"A tasty mixture of greasy blues rock, deranged intellect and mudhole-stomping Texas attitude, Churchwood once again illustrates what a post-punk Skip James might have sounded like had he gotten into the lysergic weirdness of 13th Floor Elevators."
"Bill Anderson simply lashes the Beat-poet stream-of-consciousness lyrics of singer Joe Doerr."
"Austin's Churchwood ooze a seedy blues-punk glamour that would do the Gun Club proud."
"Doerr talks about salvation, about Orwellian nightmares, about cheaters and murderers and Mohammad's mountain and an unknowable mystery woman named Aranzazu, and selling your dumbass some ocean front property in Arizona — all amid this flurry of furious sound."
"Like depression era music...we are in a depression...Churchwood's latest offering of "2" lets the sounds of confusion and blues country swamp fry your brain like it's going out of style."
"Somehow, Churchwood makes this pocket-flask full of intoxicating contradictions work — offering something as loud musically as it is contemplative lyrically, as raucous as it is interestingly constructed, utterly grounded and yet still completely out of the world."
