“I like all types of music… except country.”
God damn it. I wish I had a dollar for every time I have heard some ignorant little fool utter these oh-so-common words. Where is it that this group-think hate came from? Why do people defend the most vapid and uninspired house offerings before acknowledging the master works of Willy Nelson or Johnny Cash? A significant amount of what we love about modern music, especially rock, owes much to the country genre. Granted, I am just as annoyed as the next person by the latest Garth Brooks Single or the crooning of Clint Black, but that does not warrant the mass hatred propagated by the musically unintelligent. I just wanted to get that out of the way.
Enter this folk/country recording by Fruit Bats. Like most folk music, the core of this deal is simply a man with his guitar. The twang of the acoustic goes far for this genre when accompanied by “echo-y” drums and what some would consider experimental background production. However, no amount of production can mask the feel of a decent bar/coffee house act quickly tossed into a studio that this recording projects.
Despite this, the simplicity of the music is actually quite charming at first. The first track “Rainbow Signs” is upbeat and the production brings a catchy pop feel to the sound. This novelty continues onto the second track “A Bit of Wind.” Religious references on both tracks aside, the music is enjoyable and the quite decent harmonic vocals can conjure up memories of The Beach Boys or even John Lennon.

Fruit Bats is an American rock band formed in 1997 in Chicago, Illinois, United States. Noted as an early entrant into the folk-rock boom of the early 2000s, the group has had many.
Soon after this point in the album the whole situation becomes clear. This album has the uncanny ability to get you into the mood for this type of music and then promptly get you out…every time. I am serious. I have started to listen to this album at least 10 times and every time I start it up I get excited. I think to myself, “Sweet, Fruit Bats”, but by the time the 4th or 5th track rolls around it is a strain to not just take the damn thing out of the player. The album slows down considerably, even for country/folk songs, around the 3rd track “Magic Hour.” This decent song is merely OK, as is the fourth “The Little Acorn,” yet in the heads of the listener the album is living off of borrowed credit from the momentum of the first two tracks.
The producers or musicians or whoever just seemed to have stopped trying at this point. The novel studio produced background is drastically reduced and the album goes on a much extended sluggish streak. The fact that the tunes are relaxing and the guitar playing quite good does not make up for the extremely repetitive music and vocals. My optimism spirals out of control into pessimism about this music and my patience all but goes out the window while I flirt dangerously with boredom. This music just seems to go nowhere. I would attempt to identify more individual cases of uninspired musicality here, but tracks 3 through 8 seriously blur into a hazy mush of country in my head. Perhaps the choices for the first two tracks were a mistake. Those tracks seem laced with energy and pop, something the next 6 tracks are completely without. Like a working man who blew his load too early, this album keeps jack hammering away with their one trick pony in an attempt to cover up its shortcomings. With all its flair and creativity gone, visions of fresh folk wonder have faded into stereotypical barn dances and cattle herding within my head.
Next let us ponder the absurdly stupid names assigned to this group and its songs. I feel a bit too critical in mentioning this, but it is too obvious not to. Fruit Bats? Where the hell does that come from and what does it have to do with anything? OK, let’s put the band name aside. Plenty of bands with ludicrous names have made some of the most amazing music out there.
When you start reading the track list with titles like “Rainbow Sign,” “Truck Rabbits,” and “The Little Acorn” you lose all willingness to forgive. These names must be a joke of some sort, some bad inside joke that only the band gets and that has been taken way too far. The ninth track “Seaweed” has some good female vocals that bring it some notoriety, yet my willingness to tolerate grows thin even here.
The final track “When U Love Somebody” marks the return of the studio production and pop, but this is far too little far too late. Even though it has some really solid parts, this album is really only worth a few tracks; it would have been a much stronger release as an EP.

Fruit Bats is an American rock band formed in 1997 in Chicago, Illinois, United States. Noted as an early entrant into the folk-rock boom of the early 2000s, the group has had many personnel changes but revolves around singer/songwriter Eric D. Johnson.History[edit]
In 2000, Eric D. Johnson was an instructor at The Old Town School of Folk Music, led his own space-rock band called I Rowboat, and was a guitarist in various groups, including Califone and The Shins.[3] He also had a four-track solo outlet called Fruit Bats, which he had been working on since 1997.
Fruit Bats had begun to evolve into a band with the inclusion of I Rowboat members Dan Strack and Brian Belval and in 2001, their debut record Echolocation was released on Califone’s imprint, Perishable Records.[4] Tours followed with the likes of Modest Mouse and The Shins.
Fruit Bats signed with Sub Pop in 2002 and have released four albums with the label including Mouthfuls in 2003, Spelled in Bones in 2005, The Ruminant Band in 2009 and Tripper in 2011.
Johnson also joined The Shins in 2009.[5] Their song ’Humbug Mountain Song’ spurred new fan activity. In an interview with Reverb Magazine’s Nick Milligan (Australia), Eric D. Johnson has said of The Ruminant Band: ’I shouldn’t say I had any strong ideas about how I wanted The Ruminant Band to differ from our other records, but I knew that I definitely wanted it to. Previously, when I did those other albums, I think I set rules for myself. This time I didn’t try to go by the book so much. I also let the other [band members] play, rather than me being in charge. I played very little on this record – I wrote the songs and the vocal arrangements, and played some piano, but for the most part everything else is the band. That trust is something that comes with time. I had four years to sit and think about it. It can get lonely when you’re doing the – quote unquote – solo thing. My band is really talented, so I wanted their voices to be heard.’[6]
The song ’When U Love Somebody’ from the album Mouthfuls can be heard in the 2010 film Youth in Revolt.[7]Fruit Bats Mouthfuls Rare
The music video for ’The Ruminant Band’ from the album The Ruminant Band was shot in El Monte, California and directed by The General Assembly. Eric D. Johnson is the only member of the Fruit Bats to appear in the video. He is backed by a fictitious band that includes legendary guitarist, Willie Chambers of The Chambers Brothers.[8]
In June 2011, Johnson appeared in the music video for ’You’re Too Weird’ from the album Tripper. The video was shot in Hollywood, California and directed by The General Assembly.
In November 2013, Johnson announced the demise of the Fruit Bats on the band’s website.[9] The band played a handful of live shows, which also marked the 10th anniversary of their album Mouthfuls, in the Pacific Northwest, with their final show in Portland on November 16, 2013.
Johnson announced via Twitter in May 2015, ’I’m doing Fruit Bats again’, and linked an Instagram photo of a handwritten letter, indicating that an album will be released in 2016. Additionally, they performed with My Morning Jacket on their 2015 tour. The album Absolute Loser was released in 2016.Fruit Bats Mouthfuls Rar Free
Johnson is also the cofounder of the Huichica Musical Festival, in Sonoma, California, along with Jeff Bundschu, owner of Gundlach Bundschu winery. Johnson started this festival in 2009 to give him and his friends a place to play.Musical influences[edit]
According to an article in The Aspen Times, lead singer Eric D. Johnson’s musical influences include 70s AM radio, which he listened to while growing up in Naperville, Illinois, and The Grateful Dead.[10]Fruit Bats Mouthfuls Rar List
One writer described the band’s fourth album, The Ruminant Band, as one that ...’revels in early ‘70s SoCal bliss and other alt-country permutations,’ with elements reflective of classic rock icons including Neil Young, Fleetwood Mac and Three Dog Night.[11]
In a music blog entry in the Chicago Sun-Times from 2010, the band’s influences include The Byrds, The Kinks’ album The Village Green Preservation Society, pop radio from the late ’70s and early ’80s, and Supertramp. According to the same blog post, lead singer Johnson said of his musical style, ’I started out a hippie, but I’ve always had that pop jones -- and that’s been plenty revolutionary, at least for me.’[12]Discography[edit]Albums[edit]Fruit Bats Mouthfuls Rar 2
