Amid raves from NPR, NY Times, UNCUT and others, Corb Lund
scored a personal best with a #13 debut on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and
a #60 debut on the Billboard Indie Chart for his "breakthrough"
(Washington Post) album 'Cabin Fever.' The album also debuted at #1 on
Billboard's Canadian Top 200 albums chart.
Here's the poignant video for the song
"September": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFvwqgjC7As
NPR All Things Considered's Meredith Ochs raved about the
"impressive" album of "great songs," saying, "Lund
finds glory in tough work, spotting characters most people would overlook, and
celebrating them with colorful sketches… Corb Lund's ironic humor and keen
sense of American culture is similar to Hayes Carll": http://n.pr/N6gbmr
Meanwhile, NY Times' Nate Chinen called it "an album of
pithy mischief and roguish charm": http://nyti.ms/QYpWu3
UNCUT gave the album nine out of ten stars, raving, "This
is another terrific chapter in what's become a rich catalouge of orthodox
country."
In the Washington Post, Allison Stewart wrote, "Lund is
a revelation, laconic and scary smart, with a devil’s eye for details."
