Steve Earle is cool. The Supersuckers are cool. This EP is not cool. All the problems can be addressed in the nasal, acoustic, slowed-down version of The Supersuckers' "Creepy Jackalope Eye". Earle takes the vocals and shoves them up his ass while Eddie Spaghetti & Co. makes noodles out of testosterone. The original version of said song is included on the EP, and that makes the previous simpathon a rabid exercise in both pain and unecessary remakes. There are two more songs on this EP that Earle & The Supersuckers do, but you know what? I don't care. You probably won't, either.
