About Ruckus Limited Edition

State Line Mob released their debut album "Ruckus" to the world, & left many saying early in 2008,that they would have the best album of the year as well as having the best Southern Rock album since Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Street Survivors" way back in 1977.To S.L.M., those were great compliments to have been given to them.At the end of 2008, they proved it by winning two Muscle Shoals Music Awards for Best new artist of the year & for Best new country album of the year!They even went as far as performing several shows throughout the year with one of Skynyrds own, JoJo Billingsley"original Honkette backup singer",who is now a dear friend of thiers. If you think this is all hyperbole, then just listen to the album. The band's country outlaw sound is updated for this decade & era. Three guitars batter you while leaders Phillip Crunk and Dana Crunk trade off on vocals and sing for you southern harmony.

The album deals with subjects as diverse as a southern man’s pride in his 70 Charger in “American Beauty” and the plight of the State Line Mob against the law itself in “McNairy County Line”. Clever tracks abound, the best of which are "Hooked", "It Keeps Me Going”, "Holding You", and "Who Do You Love." With "Ruckus," they have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in American music. The song “Baby I miss You” is straight-ahead Southern boogie, whereas “Southern Comfort” is the essence of Southern soul. Most of the tracks embody country-fried blues-rock and driving, arena-ready southern rock, that will leave no listener disappointed. Paraphrasing the title of one of the album's songs, “I Need Rock and Roll.” Fortunately, you don't need a bottle of Jack or even a trace of Southern lineage to appreciate the genius of “Ruckus".
