“Cactus-chewing, smoke-signaled rock music that perpetually rolls towards sundown… a cowboy poetry swirled in honky-tonk postmodernism.” – NPR Music
“[Dylan Sharp] and Carrie Keith fashion a web of briars with their guitars, their low-key psychedelic lines perfectly warped into complementary tangles, tapping a vein of cosmic country gold until the sun finally sets.” – Pitchfork
8/10 (lead review). “Excellent. There are elements of folk and country in their music, but it’s also the sound of the desert, the ocean, the prairie, and the loneliness of LA. Gun Outfit can sing from the heart as well as from the brain.” – Uncut
“The great California band behind some of the decade’s coolest classic-feeling psych folk.” – The FADER
Gun Outfit have shared the third single, “Sally Rose,” from their forthcoming album, Out of Range, out November 10th. The band wrote the song after watching Royal Trux play in Orange County. Gun Outfit’s Carrie Keith says of the song, “It’s a little mean, a little boogie.”
Accompanying the release of “Sally Rose” is another self-directed video from the band premiering via Noisey, with an interview about the American Southwest and the Meat Puppets. Like the video for their last single, “Landscape Painter,” the “Sally Rose” video continues with the “Western expanse” themes evident on Out Of Range—warped tales of Western civ melting into those of the American West—featuring shots of Keith in the desert, a reference to First Nations songwriter Willie Dunn, fireworks, rock climbing, horse racing and more.
Out of Range contains Gun Outfit’s most conceptually sophisticated and lyrically ambitious material, while remaining their most musically subtle, understated, and accessible album to date, completing their gradual metamorphosis from punk aesthetics to a truly cosmic country—wherein “country” is a geography, a structure of feeling, not a genre.
Sonically, Gun Outfit has never sounded more confidently awash in its collective strengths and nuances, its players never more sensually attuned to each other’s playing. Like a stone eroded by years in the arroyo, the band’s enveloping aesthetic of guitar levitations and honky-tonk hexes has become gradually smoother over time.
Out of Range ranks as Gun Outfit’s most brutally beautiful statement yet.
