What the label says:

The Mojomatics heap together hillbilly blues, old country, folk and bluegrass, inject it with the melody of British Invasion pop and fire it all out with the breakneck energy of the best garage/punk/rock n' roll. The duo's playing is still tight and electric and sounds like there's five of them, not just two! The Mojomatics take all of these well-tread musical elements and somehow make them sound as fresh, current and exciting as any new thing the hipster pundits are selling these days. Song after song on this album is catchier than the clap and guaranteed to get you smiling, dancing, and feeling totally great about life.RIYL: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The White Stripes, The Fuzztones, Detroit Cobras, The Hives. UK press by Rachel Silver (Silver PR) http://www.mojomatics.com http://www.myspace.com/themojomatics Discography: 2006 Songs For Faraway Lovers – cd album (Alien Snatch), 2005 A Sweet Mama Gonna Hoodo Me – cd album (Alien Snatch). Two tunes in and i'm hooked. They could almost rival THE REIGNING SOUND in songwriting brillance. Injecting some infectious '60s whiteboy R' n ' B such as THE PRETTY THINGS, with the tambourine folk of, let's say, MOUSE AND THE TRAPS, with some raucous Delta blues an Atlantic soul. Christ, these boys can write them, play them, and sing them---retro without being, um, retro, folk without being cheesy, and soul without being another one of those soul/punk outfits. All brought together by their understanding of how to write a simple but great pop tune. Damn best record I've heard in a long long time! MAXIMUM ROCK N ROLL (USA) MARCH 2007. Tracks : 1.
